Joel Fernandes (Google) 60f9dd96da rcu/tree: Defer setting of jiffies during stall reset
commit b96e7a5fa0 upstream.

There are instances where rcu_cpu_stall_reset() is called when jiffies
did not get a chance to update for a long time. Before jiffies is
updated, the CPU stall detector can go off triggering false-positives
where a just-started grace period appears to be ages old. In the past,
we disabled stall detection in rcu_cpu_stall_reset() however this got
changed [1]. This is resulting in false-positives in KGDB usecase [2].

Fix this by deferring the update of jiffies to the third run of the FQS
loop. This is more robust, as, even if rcu_cpu_stall_reset() is called
just before jiffies is read, we would end up pushing out the jiffies
read by 3 more FQS loops. Meanwhile the CPU stall detection will be
delayed and we will not get any false positives.

[2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230814020045.51950-2-chenhuacai@loongson.cn/

Tested with rcutorture.cpu_stall option as well to verify stall behavior
with/without patch.
