Pull RCU changes from Ingo Molnar: "This is the v3.5 RCU tree from Paul E. McKenney: 1) A set of improvements and fixes to the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ feature (with more on the way for 3.6). Posted to LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/324 (commits 1-3 and 5), https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/611 (commit 4), https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/30/390 (commit 6), and https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/4/410 (commit 7, combined with the other commits for the convenience of the tester). 2) Changes to make rcu_barrier() avoid disrupting execution of CPUs that have no RCU callbacks. Posted to LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/322. 3) A couple of commits that improve the efficiency of the interaction between preemptible RCU and the scheduler, these two being all that survived an abortive attempt to allow preemptible RCU's __rcu_read_lock() to be inlined. The full set was posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/14/143, and the first and third patches of that set remain. 4) Lai Jiangshan's algorithmic implementation of SRCU, which includes call_srcu() and srcu_barrier(). A major feature of this new implementation is that synchronize_srcu() no longer disturbs the execution of other CPUs. This work is based on earlier implementations by Peter Zijlstra and Paul E. McKenney. Posted to LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/22/82. 5) A number of miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements which were posted to LKML at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/353 with subsequent updates posted to LKML." * 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (32 commits) rcu: Make rcu_barrier() less disruptive rcu: Explicitly initialize RCU_FAST_NO_HZ per-CPU variables rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ handle timer migration rcu: Update RCU maintainership rcu: Make exit_rcu() more precise and consolidate rcu: Move PREEMPT_RCU preemption to switch_to() invocation rcu: Ensure that RCU_FAST_NO_HZ timers expire on correct CPU rcu: Add rcutorture test for call_srcu() rcu: Implement per-domain single-threaded call_srcu() state machine rcu: Use single value to handle expedited SRCU grace periods rcu: Improve srcu_readers_active_idx()'s cache locality rcu: Remove unused srcu_barrier() rcu: Implement a variant of Peter's SRCU algorithm rcu: Improve SRCU's wait_idx() comments rcu: Flip ->completed only once per SRCU grace period rcu: Increment upper bit only for srcu_read_lock() rcu: Remove fast check path from __synchronize_srcu() rcu: Direct algorithmic SRCU implementation rcu: Introduce rcutorture testing for rcu_barrier() timer: Fix mod_timer_pinned() header comment ...
