Entering RCU idle mode may cause a deferred wake up of an RCU NOCB_GP kthread (rcuog) to be serviced.
Usually a wake up happening while running the idle task is spotted in one of the need_resched() checks carefully placed within the idle loop that can break to the scheduler.
Unfortunately within cpuidle the call to rcu_idle_enter() is already beyond the last generic need_resched() check. Some drivers may perform their own checks like with mwait_idle_with_hints() but many others don't and we may halt the CPU with a resched request unhandled, leaving the task hanging.
Fix this with performing a last minute need_resched() check after calling rcu_idle_enter().
