[PATCH tip/core/rcu 2/4] srcu: Document that srcu_funnel_gp_start() implies srcu_funnel_exp_start()

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Jun 25 2018 - 18:46:23 EST


This commit updates the header comment of srcu_funnel_gp_start() to
document the fact that srcu_funnel_gp_start() does the work of
srcu_funnel_exp_start(), in some cases by invoking it directly.
