  rcu: Adaptive dyntick-idle preparation
  rcu: Keep invoking callbacks if CPU otherwise idle
  rcu: Irq nesting is always 0 on rcu_enter_idle_common

  rcu: Permit dyntick-idle with callbacks pending
  rcu: Document same-context read-side constraints
  rcu: Identify dyntick-idle CPUs on first force_quiescent_state() pass
  rcu: Remove dynticks false positives and RCU failures
