During expedited grace-period initialization, a work item is scheduled for each leaf rcu_node structure. However, that initialization code is itself (normally) executing from a workqueue, so one of the leaf rcu_node structures could just as well be handled by that pre-existing workqueue, and with less overhead. This commit therefore uses a shiny new rcu_is_leaf_node() macro to execute the last leaf rcu_node structure's initialization directly from the pre-existing workqueue. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
