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 biggest change in this cycle is the conclusion of the big
  'simplify RCU to two primary flavors' consolidation work - i.e.
  there's a single RCU flavor for any kernel variant (PREEMPT and
  !PREEMPT):

    - Consolidate the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors into a
      single flavor similar to RCU-sched in !PREEMPT kernels and into a
      single flavor similar to RCU-preempt (but also waiting on
      preempt-disabled sequences of code) in PREEMPT kernels.

      This branch also includes a refactoring of
      rcu_{nmi,irq}_{enter,exit}() from Byungchul Park.

    - Now that there is only one RCU flavor in any given running kernel,
      the many "rsp" pointers are no longer required, and this cleanup
      series removes them.

    - This branch carries out additional cleanups made possible by the
      RCU flavor consolidation, including inlining now-trivial
      functions, updating comments and definitions, and removing
      now-unneeded rcutorture scenarios.

    - Now that there is only one flavor of RCU in any running kernel,
      there is also only on rcu_data structure per CPU. This means that
      the rcu_dynticks structure can be merged into the rcu_data
      structure, a task taken on by this branch. This branch also
      contains a -rt-related fix from Mike Galbraith.

  There were also other updates:

    - Documentation updates, including some good-eye catches from Joel
      Fernandes.

    - SRCU updates, most notably changes enabling call_srcu() to be
      invoked very early in the boot sequence.

    - Torture-test updates, including some preliminary work towards
      making rcutorture better able to find problems that result in
      insufficient grace-period forward progress.

    - Initial changes to RCU to better promote forward progress of grace
      periods, including fixing a bug found by Marius Hillenbrand and
      David Woodhouse, with the fix suggested by Peter Zijlstra"
