Merge branches 'bigrt.2012.09.23a', 'doctorture.2012.09.23a', 'fixes.2012.09.23a', 'hotplug.2012.09.23a' and 'idlechop.2012.09.23a' into HEAD
bigrt.2012.09.23a contains additional commits to reduce scheduling latency from RCU on huge systems (many hundrends or thousands of CPUs). doctorture.2012.09.23a contains documentation changes and rcutorture fixes. fixes.2012.09.23a contains miscellaneous fixes. hotplug.2012.09.23a contains CPU-hotplug-related changes. idle.2012.09.23a fixes architectures for which RCU no longer considered the idle loop to be a quiescent state due to earlier adaptive-dynticks changes. Affected architectures are alpha, cris, frv, h8300, m32r, m68k, mn10300, parisc, score, xtensa, and ia64.
