Linus Torvalds f6602a97a1 Urgent RCU pull request for v6.1
This pull request contains a commit that fixes bf95b2bc3e ("rcu: Switch
 polled grace-period APIs to ->gp_seq_polled"), which could incorrectly
 leave interrupts enabled after an early-boot call to synchronize_rcu().
 Such synchronize_rcu() calls must acquire leaf rcu_node locks in order to
 properly interact with polled grace periods, but the code did not take
 into account the possibility of synchronize_rcu() being invoked from
 the portion of the boot sequence during which interrupts are disabled.
 This commit therefore switches the lock acquisition and release from
 irq to irqsave/irqrestore.

Pull RCU fix from Paul McKenney:
 "Fix a regression caused by commit bf95b2bc3e ("rcu: Switch polled

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.
