Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull RCU changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
- changes permitting use of call_rcu() and friends very early in
boot, for example, before rcu_init() is invoked.
- add in-kernel API to enable and disable expediting of normal RCU
grace periods.
- improve RCU's handling of (hotplug-) outgoing CPUs.
- NO_HZ_FULL_SYSIDLE fixes.
- tiny-RCU updates to make it more tiny.
- documentation updates.
- miscellaneous fixes"
