linux-next: build warning after merge of the rcu tree

[Stephen Rothwell]

Hi all,

After merging the rcu tree, today's linux-next build (htmldocs) produced
this warning:

Documentation/RCU/Design/Requirements/Requirements.rst:2220: WARNING: Malformed table.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| **Quick Quiz**:                                                       |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| But what if my driver has a hardware interrupt handler that can run   |
| for many seconds? I cannot invoke schedule() from an hardware         |
| interrupt handler, after all!                                         |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| **Answer**:                                                           |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| One approach is to do ``ct_irq_exit();ct_irq_enter();`` every so    |
| often. But given that long-running interrupt handlers can cause other |
| problems, not least for response time, shouldn't you work to keep     |
| your interrupt handler's runtime within reasonable bounds?            |
