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

Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main RCU subsystem changes in this cycle were:

  - Miscellaneous fixes, perhaps most notably removing obsolete code
    whose only purpose in life was to gather information for the
    now-removed RCU debugfs facility. Other notable changes include
    removing NO_HZ_FULL_ALL in favor of the nohz_full kernel boot
    parameter, minor optimizations for expedited grace periods, some
    added tracing, creating an RCU-specific workqueue using Tejun's new
    WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag, and several cleanups to code and comments.

  - SRCU cleanups and optimizations.

  - Torture-test updates, perhaps most notably the adding of ARMv8
    support, but also including numerous cleanups and usability fixes"
