rcu: Make priority of grace-period thread consistent
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The priority of RCU grace period threads is set to kthread_prio when
they are launched from rcu_spawn_gp_kthread().  The same is not true
of rcu_spawn_one_nocb_kthread().  Accordingly, add priority elevation
to rcu_spawn_one_nocb_kthread().
