Merge branch 'rcu/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu
Pull fix for hlist_entry_safe() regression from Paul McKenney:
"This contains a single commit that fixes a regression in
hlist_entry_safe(). This macro references its argument twice, which
can cause NULL-pointer errors. This commit applies a gcc statement
expression, creating a temporary variable to avoid the double
reference. This has been posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/9/75.
Kudos to CAI Qian, whose testing uncovered this, to Eric Dumazet, who
spotted root cause, and to Li Zefan, who tested this commit."
