Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull RCU changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "This is the v3.5 RCU tree from Paul E.  McKenney:

 1) A set of improvements and fixes to the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ feature (with
    more on the way for 3.6).  Posted to LKML:
       https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/324 (commits 1-3 and 5),
       https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/611 (commit 4),
       https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/30/390 (commit 6), and
       https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/4/410 (commit 7, combined with
       the other commits for the convenience of the tester).

 2) Changes to make rcu_barrier() avoid disrupting execution of CPUs
    that have no RCU callbacks.  Posted to LKML:
       https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/322.

 3) A couple of commits that improve the efficiency of the interaction
    between preemptible RCU and the scheduler, these two being all that
    survived an abortive attempt to allow preemptible RCU's
    __rcu_read_lock() to be inlined.  The full set was posted to LKML at
    https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/14/143, and the first and third patches
    of that set remain.

 4) Lai Jiangshan's algorithmic implementation of SRCU, which includes
    call_srcu() and srcu_barrier().  A major feature of this new
    implementation is that synchronize_srcu() no longer disturbs the
    execution of other CPUs.  This work is based on earlier
    implementations by Peter Zijlstra and Paul E.  McKenney.  Posted to
    LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/22/82.

 5) A number of miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements which were
    posted to LKML at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/353 with
    subsequent updates posted to LKML."
