607 * section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
608 * therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
609 * callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
610 * RCU callback is invoked.

770 * a. You have not made -any- reader-visible changes to
