[ Upstream commit 8b4e74ccb582797f6f0b0a50372ebd9fd2372a27 ]
select_idle_sibling() has a special case for tasks woken up by a per-CPU
kthread, where the selected CPU is the previous one. However, the current
condition for this exit path is incomplete. A task can wake up from an
interrupt context (e.g. hrtimer), while a per-CPU kthread is running. A
such scenario would spuriously trigger the special case described above.
Also, a recent change made the idle task like a regular per-CPU kthread,
hence making that situation more likely to happen
(is_per_cpu_kthread(swapper) being true now).
Checking for task context makes sure select_idle_sibling() will not
interpret a wake up from any other context as a wake up by a per-CPU
kthread.

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.
