mainlining shenanigans

Userspace applications should be allowed to expect the membarrier system call with MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED command to issue memory barriers on nohz_full CPUs, but synchronize_sched() does not take those into account. Given that we do not want unrelated processes to be able to affect real-time sensitive nohz_full CPUs, simply return ENOSYS when membarrier is invoked on a kernel with enabled nohz_full CPUs.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
