Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main RCU changes in this cycle are:
- Idle entry/exit changes, to throttle callback execution and other
refinements to speed up kbuild, primarily to address performance
issues located by Tibor Billes.
- Grace-period related changes, primarily to aid in debugging,
inspired by an -rt debugging session.
- Code reorganization moving RCU's source files into its own
kernel/rcu/ directory.
- RCU documentation updates
- Miscellaneous fixes.
Note, the following commit:
5c889690aa08 mm: Place preemption point in do_mlockall() loop
is identical to the commit already in your tree via email:
22356f447ceb mm: Place preemption point in do_mlockall() loop
[ Your version of the changelog nicely demonstrates it how kernel oops
messages should be trimmed properly :-/ ]"
