[PATCH v4 7/9] checkpatch: Deprecate rcu_read_{,un}lock_trace()
From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Dec 29 2025 - 14:12:10 EST
Uses of rcu_read_lock_trace() and rcu_read_unlock_trace()
are better served by the new rcu_read_lock_tasks_trace() and
rcu_read_unlock_tasks_trace() APIs. Therefore, mark the old APIs as
deprecated.
