[PATCH tip/core/rcu 03/20] doc: Remove rcu_preempt_state reference in stallwarn

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Sun Nov 11 2018 - 15:43:53 EST


From: "Joel Fernandes (Google)" <joel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Consolidation of RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched into one RCU flavor
to rule them all resulted in the removal of rcu_preempt_state. However,
stallwarn.txt still mentions rcu_preempt_state. This commit therefore
Updates stallwarn documentation accordingly.
