[PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/13] Torture-test updates for 4.2

[Paul E. McKenney]

Hello!

This series contains torture-test updates:

1.	Use correct locking primitive, thus avoiding deadlock, courtesy
	of Alexey Kodanev.

2.	Exchange TREE03 and TREE04 geometries in order to improve bug-location
	rates.

3.	Exchange TREE03 and TREE08 NR_CPUS, speed up CPU hotplug to further
	improve bug-location rates.

4.	Allow negative values of nreaders to in order to oversubscribe
	the CPUs, again to improve bug-location rates.

5.	Change longdelay_us to longdelay_ms in order to better reflect
	reality.  (Not that gcc cares, but people reading the code just
	might.)

6.	Replace open-coded memory barriers with the shiny new
	smp_store_release() and smp_load_acquire() primitives.

7.	Test SRCU cleanup code path in order to improve test coverage.

8.	Avoid explicitly setting CONFIG_TASKS_RCU, given that it is
	now set implicitly based on other configuration options.

9.	Update configuration fragments from CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_EXACT to
	the new rcutree.rcu_fanout_exact= boot parameter.

10.	Make rcutorture scripts force RCU_EXPERT so that they can still
	build the needed kernel configurations.

11.	Update TREE_RCU-kconfig.txt to describe new kernel-parameter
	setup.

12.	Make torture scripts display "make oldconfig" errors

13.	Allow repetition factors in Kconfig-fragment lists.  Because
	typing 48 repetitions of "TINY02" is getting old.

							Thanx, Paul
