Maulik Shah 7bb7a83f4d Revert "drivers: qcom: rpmh-rsc: Use rcuidle tracepoints for rpmh"
Commit efde2659b0 ("drivers: qcom: rpmh-rsc: Use rcuidle tracepoints
for rpmh") was written to fix a bug seen in an unmerged series that
implemented a struct generic_pm_domain::power_off() callback calling
rpmh_flush(). See stack trace below.

     Call trace:
      dump_backtrace+0x0/0x174
      show_stack+0x20/0x2c
      dump_stack+0xc8/0x124
      lockdep_rcu_suspicious+0xe4/0x104
      __tcs_buffer_write+0x230/0x2d0
      rpmh_rsc_write_ctrl_data+0x210/0x270
      rpmh_flush+0x84/0x24c
      rpmh_domain_power_off+0x78/0x98
      _genpd_power_off+0x40/0xc0
      genpd_power_off+0x168/0x208

Later the final merged solution is to use CPU PM notification to invoke
rpmh_flush() and power_off() callback of genpd is not implemented in the
driver.

CPU PM notifiers are run with RCU enabled/watching (see cpu_pm_notify()
and how it calls rcu_irq_enter_irqson() before calling the notifiers).

Remove this change since RCU will not be idle during CPU PM notifications
hence not required to use _rcuidle tracepoint. Using _rcuidle tracepoint
prevented rpmh driver to be loadable module as these are not exported
symbols.

This reverts commit efde2659b0.

README

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.
