Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar: "The RCU changes in this cycle are: - Dynticks updates, consolidating open-coded counter accesses into a well-defined API - SRCU updates: Simplify algorithm, add formal verification - Documentation updates - Miscellaneous fixes - Torture-test updates Most of the diffstat comes from the relatively large documentation update" * 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (42 commits) srcu: Reduce probability of SRCU ->unlock_count[] counter overflow rcutorture: Add CBMC-based formal verification for SRCU srcu: Force full grace-period ordering srcu: Implement more-efficient reader counts rcu: Adjust FQS offline checks for exact online-CPU detection rcu: Check cond_resched_rcu_qs() state less often to reduce GP overhead rcu: Abstract extended quiescent state determination rcu: Abstract dynticks extended quiescent state enter/exit operations rcu: Add lockdep checks to synchronous expedited primitives rcu: Eliminate unused expedited_normal counter llist: Clarify comments about when locking is needed rcu: Fix comment in rcu_organize_nocb_kthreads() rcu: Enable RCU tracepoints by default to aid in debugging rcu: Make rcu_cpu_starting() use its "cpu" argument rcu: Add comment headers to expedited-grace-period counter functions rcu: Don't wake rcuc/X kthreads on NOCB CPUs rcu: Re-enable TASKS_RCU for User Mode Linux rcu: Once again use NMI-based stack traces in stall warnings rcu: Remove short-term CPU kicking rcu: Add long-term CPU kicking ...
