Merge branch 'for-3.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq
Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
"There are three major changes.
- WQ_HIGHPRI has been reimplemented so that high priority work items
are served by worker threads with -20 nice value from dedicated
highpri worker pools.
- CPU hotplug support has been reimplemented such that idle workers
are kept across CPU hotplug events. This makes CPU hotplug cheaper
(for PM) and makes the code simpler.
- flush_kthread_work() has been reimplemented so that a work item can
be freed while executing. This removes an annoying behavior
difference between kthread_worker and workqueue."

workqueue: factor out worker_pool from global_cwq
Move worklist and all worker management fields from global_cwq into the new struct worker_pool. worker_pool points back to the containing gcwq. worker and cpu_workqueue_struct are updated to point to worker_pool instead of gcwq too. This change is mechanical and doesn't introduce any functional difference other than rearranging of fields and an added level of indirection in some places. This is to prepare for multiple pools per gcwq. v2: Comment typo fixes as suggested by Namhyung. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> |

tracing/kvm: Use __print_hex() for kvm_emulate_insn tracepoint
The kvm_emulate_insn tracepoint used __print_insn()
for printing its instructions. However it makes the
format of the event hard to parse as it reveals TP
internals.
Fortunately, kernel provides __print_hex for almost
same purpose, we can use it instead of open coding
it. The user-space can be changed to parse it later.
That means raw kernel tracing will not be affected
by this change:

x86/flush_tlb: try flush_tlb_single one by one in flush_tlb_range
x86 has no flush_tlb_range support in instruction level. Currently the flush_tlb_range just implemented by flushing all page table. That is not the best solution for all scenarios. In fact, if we just use 'invlpg' to flush few lines from TLB, we can get the performance gain from later remain TLB lines accessing. But the 'invlpg' instruction costs much of time. Its execution time can compete with cr3 rewriting, and even a bit more on SNB CPU. So, on a 512 4KB TLB entries CPU, the balance points is at: (512 - X) * 100ns(assumed TLB refill cost) = X(TLB flush entries) * 100ns(assumed invlpg cost) Here, X is 256, that is 1/2 of 512 entries. But with the mysterious CPU pre-fetcher and page miss handler Unit, the assumed TLB refill cost is far lower then 100ns in sequential access. And 2 HT siblings in one core makes the memory access more faster if they are accessing the same memory. So, in the patch, I just do the change when the target entries is less than 1/16 of whole active tlb entries. Actually, I have no data support for the percentage '1/16', so any suggestions are welcomed. As to hugetlb, guess due to smaller page table, and smaller active TLB entries, I didn't see benefit via my benchmark, so no optimizing now. My micro benchmark show in ideal scenarios, the performance improves 70 percent in reading. And in worst scenario, the reading/writing performance is similar with unpatched 3.4-rc4 kernel. Here is the reading data on my 2P * 4cores *HT NHM EP machine, with THP 'always': multi thread testing, '-t' paramter is thread number: with patch unpatched 3.4-rc4 ./mprotect -t 1 14ns 24ns ./mprotect -t 2 13ns 22ns ./mprotect -t 4 12ns 19ns ./mprotect -t 8 14ns 16ns ./mprotect -t 16 28ns 26ns ./mprotect -t 32 54ns 51ns ./mprotect -t 128 200ns 199ns Single process with sequencial flushing and memory accessing: with patch unpatched 3.4-rc4 ./mprotect 7ns 11ns ./mprotect -p 4096 -l 8 -n 10240 21ns 21ns [ hpa: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1B4B44D9196EFF41AE41FDA404FC0A100BFF94@SHSMSX101.ccr.corp.intel.com has additional performance numbers. ] Signed-off-by: Alex Shi <alex.shi@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1340845344-27557-3-git-send-email-alex.shi@intel.com Signed-off-by: H.

mm: vmscan: do not stall on writeback during memory compaction
This patch stops reclaim/compaction entering sync reclaim as this was only intended for lumpy reclaim and an oversight. Page migration has its own logic for stalling on writeback pages if necessary and memory compaction is already using it. Waiting on page writeback is bad for a number of reasons but the primary one is that waiting on writeback to a slow device like USB can take a considerable length of time. Page reclaim instead uses wait_iff_congested() to throttle if too many dirty pages are being scanned.

mm: vmscan: remove lumpy reclaim
This series removes lumpy reclaim and some stalling logic that was
unintentionally being used by memory compaction. The end result is that
stalling on dirty pages during page reclaim now depends on
wait_iff_congested().
Four kernels were compared
3.3.0 vanilla
3.4.0-rc2 vanilla
3.4.0-rc2 lumpyremove-v2 is patch one from this series
3.4.0-rc2 nosync-v2r3 is the full series
Removing lumpy reclaim saves almost 900 bytes of text whereas the full
series removes 1200 bytes.

mm: remove swap token code
The swap token code no longer fits in with the current VM model. It does not play well with cgroups or the better NUMA placement code in development, since we have only one swap token globally. It also has the potential to mess with scalability of the system, by increasing the number of non-reclaimable pages on the active and inactive anon LRU lists. Last but not least, the swap token code has been broken for a year without complaints, as reported by Konstantin Khlebnikov. This suggests we no longer have much use for it. The days of sub-1G memory systems with heavy use of swap are over. If we ever need thrashing reducing code in the future, we will have to implement something that does scale.

user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission
checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe.
- All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial
user namespace before they are processed. Removing the need to add
an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared
uids remains the same.
- With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or
better than it is today.
- For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or
operationally with the user namespace enabled.
- The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1
billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code
enabled. This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to
164ns per stat operation).
- (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value.
Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially
anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause
entertaining failures in userspace.
- If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails.
I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I
could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and
handle the case where setuid fails.
- If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which
we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid. The LFS
experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be
better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I
can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we
can't map.
- Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it
safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities.
My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core
kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."

Sound updates for 3.5-rc1
This is the first big chunk for 3.5 merges of sound stuff.
There are a few big changes in different areas. First off, the
streaming logic of USB-audio endpoints has been largely rewritten
for the better support of "implicit feedback". If anything about USB
got broken, this change has to be checked.
For HD-audio, the resume procedure was changed; instead of delaying
the resume of the hardware until the first use, now waking up immediately
at resume. This is for buggy BIOS.
For ASoC, dynamic PCM support and the improved support for digital links
between off-SoC devices are major framework changes.
Some highlights are below:
* HD-audio
- Avoid the accesses of invalid pin-control bits that may stall the codec
- V-ref setup cleanups
- Fix the races in power-saving code
- Fix the races in codec cache hashes and connection lists
- Split some common codes for BIOS auto-parser to hda_auto_parser.c
- Changed the PM resume code to wake up immediately for buggy BIOS
- Creative SoundCore3D support
- Add Conexant CX20751/2/3/4 codec support
* ASoC
- Dynamic PCM support, allowing support for SoCs with internal routing
through components with tight sequencing and formatting constraints
within their internal paths or where there are multiple components
connected with CPU managed DMA controllers inside the SoC.
- Greatly improved support for direct digital links between off-SoC
devices, providing a much simpler way of connecting things like digital
basebands to CODECs.
- Much more fine grained and robust locking, cleaning up some of the
confusion that crept in with multi-component.
- CPU support for nVidia Tegra 30 I2S and audio hub controllers and
ST-Ericsson MSP I2S controolers
- New CODEC drivers for Cirrus CS42L52, LAPIS Semiconductor ML26124, Texas
Instruments LM49453.
- Some regmap changes needed by the Tegra I2S driver.
- mc13783 audio support.
* Misc
- Rewrite with module_pci_driver()
- Xonar DGX support for snd-oxygen
- Improvement of packet handling in snd-firewire driver
- New USB-endpoint streaming logic
- Enhanced M-audio FTU quirks and relevant cleanups
- Increment the support of OSS devices to 256
- snd-aloop accuracy improvement
There are a few more pending changes for 3.5, but they will be
sent slightly later as partly depending on the changes of DRM.

jbd: Write journal superblock with WRITE_FUA after checkpointing
If journal superblock is written only in disk's caches and other transaction starts reusing space of the transaction cleaned from the log, it can happen blocks of a new transaction reach the disk before journal superblock. When power failure happens in such case, subsequent journal replay would still try to replay the old transaction but some of it's blocks may be already overwritten by the new transaction. For this reason we must use WRITE_FUA when updating log tail and we must first write new log tail to disk and update in-memory information only after that. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> |

rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ handle timer migration
The current RCU_FAST_NO_HZ assumes that timers do not migrate unless a CPU goes offline, in which case it assumes that the CPU will have to come out of dyntick-idle mode (cancelling the timer) in order to go offline. This is important because when RCU_FAST_NO_HZ permits a CPU to enter dyntick-idle mode despite having RCU callbacks pending, it posts a timer on that CPU to force a wakeup on that CPU. This wakeup ensures that the CPU will eventually handle the end of the grace period, including invoking its RCU callbacks. However, Pascal Chapperon's test setup shows that the timer handler rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() really does get invoked in some cases. This is problematic because this can cause the CPU that entered dyntick-idle mode despite still having RCU callbacks pending to remain in dyntick-idle mode indefinitely, which means that its RCU callbacks might never be invoked. This situation can result in grace-period delays or even system hangs, which matches Pascal's observations of slow boot-up and shutdown (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/5/142). See also the bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806548 This commit therefore causes the "should never be invoked" timer handler rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() to use smp_call_function_single() to wake up the CPU for which the timer was intended, allowing that CPU to invoke its RCU callbacks in a timely manner.

writeback: Move requeueing when I_SYNC set to writeback_sb_inodes()
When writeback_single_inode() is called on inode which has I_SYNC already set while doing WB_SYNC_NONE, inode is moved to b_more_io list. However this makes sense only if the caller is flusher thread. For other callers of writeback_single_inode() it doesn't really make sense and may be even wrong - flusher thread may be doing WB_SYNC_ALL writeback in parallel. So we move requeueing from writeback_single_inode() to writeback_sb_inodes().

jbd: Refine commit writeout logic
Currently we write out all journal buffers in WRITE_SYNC mode. This improves performance for fsync heavy workloads but hinders performance when writes are mostly asynchronous, most noticably it slows down readers and users complain about slow desktop response etc. So submit writes as asynchronous in the normal case and only submit writes as WRITE_SYNC if we detect someone is waiting for current transaction commit. I've gathered some numbers to back this change. The first is the read latency test. It measures time to read 1 MB after several seconds of sleeping in presence of streaming writes. Top 10 times (out of 90) in us: Before After 2131586 697473 1709932 557487 1564598 535642 1480462 347573 1478579 323153 1408496 222181 1388960 181273 1329565 181070 1252486 172832 1223265 172278 Average: 619377 82180 So the improvement in both maximum and average latency is massive. I've measured fsync throughput by: fs_mark -n 100 -t 1 -s 16384 -d /mnt/fsync/ -S 1 -L 4 in presence of streaming reader. The numbers (fsyncs/s) are: Before After 9.9 6.3 6.8 6.0 6.3 6.2 5.8 6.1 So fsync performance seems unharmed by this change. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> |

tracing, sched, vfs: Fix 'old_pid' usage in trace_sched_process_exec()
1. TRACE_EVENT(sched_process_exec) forgets to actually use the old pid argument, it sets ->old_pid = p->pid. 2. search_binary_handler() uses the wrong pid number. tracepoint needs the global pid_t from the root namespace, while old_pid is the virtual pid number as it seen by the tracer/parent. With this patch we have two pid_t's in search_binary_handler(), not really nice. Perhaps we should switch to "struct pid*", but in this case it would be better to cleanup the current code first and move the "depth == 0" code outside.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs
Pull btrfs fixes and features from Chris Mason:
"We've merged in the error handling patches from SuSE. These are
already shipping in the sles kernel, and they give btrfs the ability
to abort transactions and go readonly on errors. It involves a lot of
churn as they clarify BUG_ONs, and remove the ones we now properly
deal with.
Josef reworked the way our metadata interacts with the page cache.
page->private now points to the btrfs extent_buffer object, which
makes everything faster. He changed it so we write an whole extent
buffer at a time instead of allowing individual pages to go down,,
which will be important for the raid5/6 code (for the 3.5 merge
window ;)
Josef also made us more aggressive about dropping pages for metadata
blocks that were freed due to COW. Overall, our metadata caching is
much faster now.
We've integrated my patch for metadata bigger than the page size.
This allows metadata blocks up to 64KB in size. In practice 16K and
32K seem to work best. For workloads with lots of metadata, this cuts
down the size of the extent allocation tree dramatically and fragments
much less.
Scrub was updated to support the larger block sizes, which ended up
being a fairly large change (thanks Stefan Behrens).
We also have an assortment of fixes and updates, especially to the
balancing code (Ilya Dryomov), the back ref walker (Jan Schmidt) and
the defragging code (Liu Bo)."
Fixed up trivial conflicts in fs/btrfs/scrub.c that were just due to
removal of the second argument to k[un]map_atomic() in commit

Ext4 commits for 3.3 merge window; mostly cleanups and bug fixes
The changes to export dirty_writeback_interval are from Artem's s_dirt
cleanup patch series. The same is true of the change to remove the
s_dirt helper functions which never got used by anyone in-tree. I've
run these changes by Al Viro, and am carrying them so that Artem can
more easily fix up the rest of the file systems during the next merge
window. (Originally we had hopped to remove the use of s_dirt from
ext4 during this merge window, but his patches had some bugs, so I
ultimately ended dropping them from the ext4 tree.)

"[RFC PATCH 0/2] audit of linux/device.h users in include/*" https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/4/159 -- Nearly every subsystem has some kind of header with a proto like: void foo(struct device *dev); and yet there is no reason for most of these guys to care about the sub fields within the device struct. This allows us to significantly reduce the scope of headers including headers. For this instance, a reduction of about 40% is achieved by replacing the include with the simple fact that the device is some kind of a struct. Unlike the much larger module.h cleanup, this one is simply two commits. One to fix the implicit <linux/device.h> users, and then one to delete the device.h includes from the linux/include/ dir wherever possible. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJPbNxLAAoJEOvOhAQsB9HWR6QQAMRUZ94O2069/nW9h4TO/xTr Hq/80lo/TBBiRmob3iWBP76lzgeeMPPVEX1I6N7YYlhL3IL7HsaJH1DvpIPPHXQP GFKcBsZ5ZLV8c4CBDSr+/HFNdhXc0bw0awBjBvR7gAsWuZpNFn4WbhizJi4vWAoE 4ydhPu55G1G8TkBtYLJQ8xavxsmiNBSDhd2i+0vn6EVpgmXynjOMG8qXyaS97Jvg pZLwnN5Wu21coj6+xH3QUKCl1mJ+KGyamWX5gFBVIfsDB3k5H4neijVm7t1en4b0 cWxmXeR/JE3VLEl/17yN2dodD8qw1QzmTWzz1vmwJl2zK+rRRAByBrL0DP7QCwCZ ppeJbdhkMBwqjtknwrmMwsuAzUdJd79GXA+6Vm+xSEkr6FEPK1M0kGbvaqV9Usgd ohMewewbO6ddgR9eF7Kw2FAwo0hwkPNEplXIym9rZzFG1h+T0STGSHvkn7LV765E ul1FapSV3GCxEVRwWTwD28FLU2+0zlkOZ5sxXwNPTT96cNmW+R7TGuslZKNaMNjX q7eBZxo8DtVt/jqJTntR8bs8052c8g1Ac1IKmlW8VSmFwT1M6VBGRn1/JWAhuUgv dBK/FF+I1GJTAJWIhaFcKXLHvmV9uhS6JaIhLMDOetoOkpqSptJ42hDG+89WkFRk o55GQ5TFdoOpqxVzGbvE =3j4+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'device-for-3.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux Pull <linux/device.h> avoidance patches from Paul Gortmaker: "Nearly every subsystem has some kind of header with a proto like: void foo(struct device *dev); and yet there is no reason for most of these guys to care about the sub fields within the device struct.

NFS client updates for Linux 3.4
New features include:
- Add NFS client support for containers.
This should enable most of the necessary functionality, including
lockd support, and support for rpc.statd, NFSv4 idmapper and
RPCSEC_GSS upcalls into the correct network namespace from
which the mount system call was issued.
- NFSv4 idmapper scalability improvements
Base the idmapper cache on the keyring interface to allow concurrent
access to idmapper entries. Start the process of migrating users from
the single-threaded daemon-based approach to the multi-threaded
request-key based approach.
- NFSv4.1 implementation id.
Allows the NFSv4.1 client and server to mutually identify each other
for logging and debugging purposes.
- Support the 'vers=4.1' mount option for mounting NFSv4.1 instead of
having to use the more counterintuitive 'vers=4,minorversion=1'.
- SUNRPC tracepoints.
Start the process of adding tracepoints in order to improve debugging
of the RPC layer.
- pNFS object layout support for autologin.
Important bugfixes include:
- Fix a bug in rpc_wake_up/rpc_wake_up_status that caused them to fail
to wake up all tasks when applied to priority waitqueues.
- Ensure that we handle read delegations correctly, when we try to
truncate a file.
- A number of fixes for NFSv4 state manager loops (mostly to do with
delegation recovery).

Things are really quieting down with the regmap API, while we're still
seeing a trickle of new features coming in they're getting much smaller
than they were. It's also nice to have some features which support
other subsystems building infrastructure on top of regmap. Highlights
include:
- Support for padding between the register and the value when
interacting with the device, sometimes needed for fast interfaces.
- Support for applying register updates to the device when restoring the
register state. This is intended to be used to apply updates supplied by
manufacturers for tuning the performance of the device (many of which
are to undocumented registers which aren't otherwise covered).
- Support for multi-register operations on cached registers.
- Support for syncing only part of the register cache.
- Stubs and parameter query functions intended to make it easier for other
subsystems to build infrastructure on top of the regmap API.
plus a few driver updates making use of the new features which it was
easier to merge via this tree.

Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar: - New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and the tooling side, on CPUs that support it. (modern x86 Intel CPUs with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.) This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from regular, function histogram centric profiles. The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result looks like this in perf report: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy $ perf report -b --sort=symbol 52.34% [.] main [.] f1 24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3 23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2 0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul 0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal 0.01% [k] main [k] __printf This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e. the most likely taken branches in the system. "branches" can also include function calls and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system calls, traps, interrupts, etc. This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI support in perf report. - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies. It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other improvements. - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf report, etc. For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc. - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h generic facility: struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE; ... if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as little impact to the likely code path as possible. the static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching. This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key usage and fast/slow cost patterns. - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support. - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows better, etc. - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes', and a corner case bugfix. - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk). - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side. - 'perf bench' improvements - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made these features possible.

device.h: audit and cleanup users in main include dir
The <linux/device.h> header includes a lot of stuff, and it in turn gets a lot of use just for the basic "struct device" which appears so often. Clean up the users as follows: 1) For those headers only needing "struct device" as a pointer in fcn args, replace the include with exactly that. 2) For headers not really using anything from device.h, simply delete the include altogether. 3) For headers relying on getting device.h implicitly before being included themselves, now explicitly include device.h 4) For files in which doing #1 or #2 uncovers an implicit dependency on some other header, fix by explicitly adding the required header(s). Any C files that were implicitly relying on device.h to be present have already been dealt with in advance. Total removals from #1 and #2: 51. Total additions coming from #3: 9. Total other implicit dependencies from #4: 7. As of 3.3-rc1, there were 110, so a net removal of 42 gives about a 38% reduction in device.h presence in include/* Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> |

jbd2: issue cache flush after checkpointing even with internal journal
When we reach jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail(), there is no guarantee that checkpointed buffers are on a stable storage - especially if buffers were written out by jbd2_log_do_checkpoint(), they are likely to be only in disk's caches. Thus when we update journal superblock effectively removing old transaction from journal, this write of superblock can get to stable storage before those checkpointed buffers which can result in filesystem corruption after a crash. Thus we must unconditionally issue a cache flush before we update journal superblock in these cases. A similar problem can also occur if journal superblock is written only in disk's caches, other transaction starts reusing space of the transaction cleaned from the log and power failure happens. Subsequent journal replay would still try to replay the old transaction but some of it's blocks may be already overwritten by the new transaction. For this reason we must use WRITE_FUA when updating log tail and we must first write new log tail to disk and update in-memory information only after that.

jbd2: split updating of journal superblock and marking journal empty
There are three case of updating journal superblock. In the first case, we want to mark journal as empty (setting s_sequence to 0), in the second case we want to update log tail, in the third case we want to update s_errno. Split these cases into separate functions. It makes the code slightly more straightforward and later patches will make the distinction even more important.

Merge branch 'rcu/next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
The major features of this series are: - making RCU more aggressive about entering dyntick-idle mode in order to improve energy efficiency - converting a few more call_rcu()s to kfree_rcu()s - applying a number of rcutree fixes and cleanups to rcutiny - removing CONFIG_SMP #ifdefs from treercu - allowing RCU CPU stall times to be set via sysfs - adding CPU-stall capability to rcutorture - adding more RCU-abuse diagnostics - updating documentation - fixing yet more issues located by the still-ongoing top-to-bottom inspection of RCU, this time with a special focus on the CPU-hotplug code path.
