Ingo Molnar 85e853c5ec Merge branch 'for-mingo-rcu' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Pull RCU updates from Paul E. McKenney:

- Documentation updates.

- Miscellaneous fixes.

- kfree_rcu() updates: Addition of mem_dump_obj() to provide allocator return
  addresses to more easily locate bugs.  This has a couple of RCU-related commits,
  but is mostly MM.  Was pulled in with akpm's agreement.

- Per-callback-batch tracking of numbers of callbacks,
  which enables better debugging information and smarter
  reactions to large numbers of callbacks.

- The first round of changes to allow CPUs to be runtime switched from and to
  callback-offloaded state.

- CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT-related changes.

- RCU CPU stall warning updates.
- Addition of polling grace-period APIs for SRCU.

- Torture-test and torture-test scripting updates, including a "torture everything"
  script that runs rcutorture, locktorture, scftorture, rcuscale, and refscale.
  Plus does an allmodconfig build.

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.
