Paul E. McKenney 9fcb09bddd rcu/nocb: Round down for number of no-CBs grace-period kthreads
Currently, when the square root of the number of CPUs is rounded down
by int_sqrt(), this round-down is applied to the number of callback
kthreads per grace-period kthreads.  This makes almost no difference
for large systems, but results in oddities such as three no-CBs
grace-period kthreads for a five-CPU system, which is a bit excessive.
This commit therefore causes the round-down to apply to the number of
no-CBs grace-period kthreads, so that systems with from four to eight
CPUs have only two no-CBs grace period kthreads.

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.

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.
