Subject: [PATCH] rcu: enable rcu_normal_after_boot by default for RT
Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.0/older/patches-5.0.7-rt5.tar.xz
The forcing of an expedited grace period is an expensive and very
RT-application unfriendly operation, as it forcibly preempts all running
tasks on CPUs which are preventing the gp from expiring.
By default, as a policy decision, disable the expediting of grace
periods (after boot) on configurations which enable PREEMPT_RT_FULL.
