Linus Torvalds 35dc0352bb RCU pull request for v5.18
This pull request contains the following branches:
 
 exp.2022.02.24a: Contains a fix for idle detection from Neeraj Upadhyay
 	and missing access marking detected by KCSAN.
 
 fixes.2022.02.14a: Miscellaneous fixes.
 
 rcu_barrier.2022.02.08a: Reduces coupling between rcu_barrier() and
 	CPU-hotplug operations, so that rcu_barrier() no longer needs
 	to do cpus_read_lock().  This may also someday allow system
 	boot to bring CPUs online concurrently.
 
 rcu-tasks.2022.02.08a: Enable more aggressive movement to per-CPU
 	queueing when reacting to excessive lock contention due
 	to workloads placing heavy update-side stress on RCU tasks.
 
 rt.2022.02.01b: Improvements to RCU priority boosting, including
 	changes from Neeraj Upadhyay, Zqiang, and Alison Chaiken.
 
 torture.2022.02.01b: Various fixes improving test robustness and
 	debug information.
 
 torturescript.2022.02.08a: Add tests for SRCU size transitions, further
 	compress torture.sh build products, and improve debug output.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
