Merge branch 'rcu/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/urgent
Pull an RCU fix from Paul E. McKenney: "This series contains a single commit fixing an initialization bug reported by Amit Shah and fixed by Pranith Kumar (and tested by Amit). This bug results in a boot-time hang in callback-offloaded configurations where callbacks were posted before the offloading ('rcuo') kthreads were created." Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
