From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Sat Jan 14 2017 - 04:13:27 EST
Hello!
This series provides miscellaneous fixes:
1. Make RCU_EXPEDITE_BOOT be the default in order to speed up
boot, courtesy of Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.
2. Make RCU suspicious-access lockdep splats use pr_err().
3. Disable sys_membarrier when nohz_full is enabled, courtesy
of Mathieu Desnoyers.
4. Only dump stalled-tasks stacks if there was a real stall, courtesy
of Byungchul Park.
5. Remove unneeded rcu_process_callbacks() declarations.
6. Remove unused but set "mask" variable, courtesy of Tobias Klauser.
7. Remove short-term CPU kicking.
8. Add long-term CPU kicking.
9. Once again use NMI-based stack traces in stall warnings.
10. Add functions to test for trivial grace periods.
11. Make cond_resched() provide RCU quiescent state, which will
hopefully lead to the removal of cond_resched_rcu_qs().
12. Re-enable TASKS_RCU for User Mode Linux.
13. Don't wake rcuc/X kthreads on NOCB CPUs.
14. Add comment headers to expedited-grace-period counter functions.
15. Make rcu_cpu_starting() use its "cpu" argument.
16. Enable RCU tracepoints by default to aid in debugging, courtesy
of Matt Fleming.
17. Fix comment in rcu_organize_nocb_kthreads(), which no longer
spawns kthreads.
18. Clarify comments about when llist locking is needed, courtesy
of Joel Fernandes.
19. Eliminate unused expedited_normal counter.
20. Add lockdep checks to synchronous expedited primitives.
Thanx, Paul
