markers: use rcu_barrier_sched() and call_rcu_sched()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
rcu_barrier_sched() and call_rcu_sched() were introduced in 2.6.26 for the
Markers.  Change the marker code to use them.

It can be seen as a fix since the marker code was using an ugly,
temporary, #ifdef hack to work around CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU.
