[PATCH v6 6/6] rcu: Allocate WQ with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM bit set

From: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony)
Date: Fri Mar 08 2024 - 12:35:26 EST


synchronize_rcu() users have to be processed regardless
of memory pressure so our private WQ needs to have at least
one execution context what WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag guarantees.
