[PATCH rcu 0/4] Refactor TASKS_RCU for lazy preemption

[Paul E. McKenney]

Hello!

This series refactors the NEED_TASKS_RCU option so that the conditional
processing is in one place in kernel/rcu/Kconfig.  This makes it easier
to make sure that Tasks RCU is enabled in PREEMPT_AUTO kernels, given
that such kernels are preemptible, even if only lazily so.  After all,
it takes only one lazy preemption from a trampoline to significantly
degrade your kernel's actuarial statistics.

1.	Create NEED_TASKS_RCU to factor out enablement logic.

2.	Select new NEED_TASKS_RCU Kconfig option.

3.	Select new NEED_TASKS_RCU Kconfig option.

4.	Select new NEED_TASKS_RCU Kconfig option.

						Thanx, Paul
