    Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip · 078838d5
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull RCU changes from Ingo Molnar:
     "The main changes in this cycle were:
    
       - changes permitting use of call_rcu() and friends very early in
         boot, for example, before rcu_init() is invoked.
    
       - add in-kernel API to enable and disable expediting of normal RCU
         grace periods.
    
       - improve RCU's handling of (hotplug-) outgoing CPUs.
    
       - NO_HZ_FULL_SYSIDLE fixes.
    
       - tiny-RCU updates to make it more tiny.
    
       - documentation updates.
    
       - miscellaneous fixes"
