Merge branch 'rcu/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Pull RCU updates from Paul E. McKenney:
"This series greatly reduces the performance degradation of Tree SRCU
on a CPU-hotplug stress test. The effect was not subtle: Mike Galbraith
measured Classic SRCU at 55 seconds and Tree SRCU at more than 16 -minutes-
for this test. Mike collected ftrace data that showed that Classic SRCU
was auto-expediting invocations of synchronize_srcu() that found SRCU
completely idle. This series therefore adds this auto-expedite capability
to Tree SRCU, bringing the performance shortfall to less than ten seconds,
which is a great improvement over the initial shortfall of 15 minutes."
