3. Restore barrier() to rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock().

4. Add kernel parameter to dump trace after RCU CPU stall warning.

5. Add destroy_work_on_stack() to match INIT_WORK_ONSTACK().

6. Avoid srcutorture security-based pointer obfuscation.

7. Change return type of rcu_spawn_one_boost_kthread(), courtesy of
Byungchul Park.

8. Add rcutree.kthread_prio pointer to stallwarn.txt.

9. Prevent late-arriving interrupts from disrupting offline, courtesy

10. Remove redundant "if" condition from rcu_gp_is_expedited().

11. Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code for arm.
