Linus Torvalds 8cc01d43f8 RCU pull request for v6.3
This pull request contains the following branches:
 
 doc.2023.01.05a: Documentation updates.
 
 fixes.2023.01.23a: Miscellaneous fixes, perhaps most notably:
 
 o	Throttling callback invocation based on the number of callbacks
 	that are now ready to invoke instead of on the total number
 	of callbacks.
 
 o	Several patches that suppress false-positive boot-time
 	diagnostics, for example, due to lockdep not yet being
 	initialized.
 
 o	Make expedited RCU CPU stall warnings dump stacks of any tasks
 	that are blocking the stalled grace period.  (Normal RCU CPU
 	stall warnings have doen this for mnay years.)
 
 o	Lazy-callback fixes to avoid delays during boot, suspend, and
 	resume.  (Note that lazy callbacks must be explicitly enabled,
 	so this should not (yet) affect production use cases.)
 
 kvfree.2023.01.03a: Cause kfree_rcu() and friends to take advantage of
 	polled grace periods, thus reducing memory footprint by almost
 	two orders of magnitude, admittedly on a microbenchmark.
 	This series also begins the transition from kfree_rcu(p) to
 	kfree_rcu_mightsleep(p).  This transition was motivated by bugs
 	where kfree_rcu(p), which can block, was typed instead of the
 	intended kfree_rcu(p, rh).
 
 srcu.2023.01.03a: SRCU updates, perhaps most notably fixing a bug that
 	causes SRCU to fail when booted on a system with a non-zero boot
 	CPU.  This surprising situation actually happens for kdump kernels
 	on the powerpc architecture.  It also adds an srcu_down_read()
 	and srcu_up_read(), which act like srcu_read_lock() and
 	srcu_read_unlock(), but allow an SRCU read-side critical section
 	to be handed off from one task to another.
 
 srcu-always.2023.02.02a: Cleans up the now-useless SRCU Kconfig option.
 	There are a few more commits that are not yet acked or pulled
 	into maintainer trees, and these will be in a pull request for
 	a later merge window.
 
 tasks.2023.01.03a: RCU-tasks updates, perhaps most notably these fixes:
 
 o	A strange interaction between PID-namespace unshare and the
 	RCU-tasks grace period that results in a low-probability but
 	very real hang.
 
 o	A race between an RCU tasks rude grace period on a single-CPU
 	system and CPU-hotplug addition of the second CPU that can result
 	in a too-short grace period.
 
 o	A race between shrinking RCU tasks down to a single callback list
 	and queuing a new callback to some other CPU, but where that
 	queuing is delayed for more than an RCU grace period.  This can
 	result in that callback being stranded on the non-boot CPU.
 
 torture.2023.01.05a: Torture-test updates and fixes.
 
 torturescript.2023.01.03a: Torture-test scripting updates and fixes.
 
 stall.2023.01.09a: Provide additional RCU CPU stall-warning information
 	in kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_CPUTIME=y, and
 	restore the full five-minute timeout limit for expedited RCU
 	CPU stall warnings.

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

        callbacks

      - Make expedited RCU CPU stall warnings dump stacks of any tasks
        that are blocking the stalled grace period. (Normal RCU CPU
        stall warnings have done this for many years)

      - Lazy-callback fixes to avoid delays during boot, suspend, and
        resume. (Note that lazy callbacks must be explicitly enabled, so
        this should not (yet) affect production use cases)

 - Make kfree_rcu() and friends take advantage of polled grace periods,
   thus reducing memory footprint by almost two orders of magnitude,
   admittedly on a microbenchmark

   This also begins the transition from kfree_rcu(p) to
   kfree_rcu_mightsleep(p). This transition was motivated by bugs where
