The kvfree_rcu() header comment's description of the "ptr" parameter
is unclear, therefore rephrase it to make it clear that it is a pointer
to the memory to eventually be passed to kvfree().

Because RCU-tasks exists only in PREEMPT kernels and because RCU-sched
no longer exists in PREEMPT kernels, it is no longer necessary for the
rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch() macro to do anything for !PREEMPT
kernels. This commit therefore removes !PREEMPT-related code from
this macro, namely, the rcu_all_qs().

diff f64c6013 Tue May 22 10:50:53 MDT 2018 Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> rcu/x86: Provide early rcu_cpu_starting() callback

The x86/mtrr code does horrific things because hardware. It uses
stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu(), which does a wakeup (of the stopper
thread on another CPU), which uses RCU, all before the CPU is onlined.

RCU complains about this, because wakeups use RCU and RCU does
(rightfully) not consider offline CPUs for grace-periods.

Fix this by initializing RCU way early in the MTRR case.

diff 995f1405 Fri Jul 01 14:44:53 MDT 2016 Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> rcu: Suppress sparse warnings for rcu_dereference_raw()

Data structures that are used both with and without RCU protection
are difficult to write in a sparse-clean manner. If you mark the
relevant pointers with __rcu, sparse will complain about all non-RCU
uses, but if you don't mark those pointers, sparse will complain about
all RCU uses.

This commit therefore suppresses sparse warnings for rcu_dereference_raw(),
allowing mixed-protection data structures to avoid these warnings.

diff ec90a194 Wed Jun 10 01:53:06 MDT 2015 Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> rcu: Create a synchronize_rcu_mult()

There have been several requests for a primitive that waits for
grace periods for several RCU flavors concurrently, so this
commit creates it. This is a variadic macro, and you pass in
the call_rcu() functions of the flavors of RCU that you wish to
wait for.

Note that you cannot pass in call_srcu() for two reasons: (1) This
would result in a type mismatch and (2) You need to specify which
srcu_struct you want to use. Handle this by creating a wrapper
function for your SRCU domain, for example:

void call_srcu_mine(struct rcu_head *head, rcu_callback_t func)
{
call_srcu(&ss_mine, head, func);
}

You can then do something like this:

synchronize_rcu_mult(call_srcu_mine, call_rcu, call_rcu_sched);

diff c3377c2d Tue Oct 21 08:53:02 MDT 2014 Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> rcu: Remove "cpu" argument to rcu_check_callbacks()

The "cpu" argument was kept around on the off-chance that RCU might
offload scheduler-clock interrupts. However, this offload approach
has been replaced by NO_HZ_FULL, which offloads -all- RCU processing
from qualifying CPUs. It is therefore time to remove the "cpu" argument
to rcu_check_callbacks(), which this commit does.

It turns out to be easier to add the synchronous grace-period waiting
functions to RCU-tasks than to work around their absense in rcutorture,
so this commit adds them. The key point is that the existence of
call_rcu_tasks() means that rcutorture needs an rcu_barrier_tasks().

Commit d8169d4c (Make __kfree_rcu() less dependent on compiler choices)
created a macro out of an inline function in order to avoid build
breakage for certain combinations of gcc flags. Unfortunately, it also
converted a kfree_call_rcu() to a call_rcu(), which made the rcu_data
structure's ->qlen_lazy field lose counts. This commit therefore changes
the call_rcu() back to kfree_call_rcu().

There was recently some controversy about the overhead of invoking RCU
callbacks. Add TRACE_EVENT()s to obtain fine-grained timings for the
start and stop of a batch of callbacks and also for each callback invoked.
