From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Fri Oct 31 2014 - 06:21:42 EST


Linus,

Please pull the latest core-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git core-urgent-for-linus

# HEAD: 21ee24bf5b43ecaeec43a7d5c61edb3cd7f847bf Merge branch 'urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/urgent

The tree contains two RCU fixes and a compiler quirk comment fix.

Thanks,

Ingo

------------------>
Paul E. McKenney (2):
rcu: More on deadlock between CPU hotplug and expedited grace periods
rcu: Make rcu_barrier() understand about missing rcuo kthreads

Steven Noonan (1):
compiler/gcc4+: Remove inaccurate comment about 'asm goto' miscompiles
