rcu: Add rcu_pointer_handoff() This commit adds an rcu_pointer_handoff() that is intended to mark situations where a structure's protection transitions from RCU to some other mechanism (locking, reference counting, whatever). These markings should allow external tools to more easily spot bugs involving leaking pointers out of RCU read-side critical sections. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
