    checkpatch: Remove checks for expedited grace periods · 98953135
    Paul E. McKenney authored
    There was a time when the expedited grace-period primitives
    (synchronize_rcu_expedited(), synchronize_rcu_bh_expedited(), and
    synchronize_sched_expedited()) used rather antisocial kernel
    facilities like try_stop_cpus().  However, they have since been
    housebroken to use only single-CPU IPIs, and typically cause less
    disturbance than a scheduling-clock interrupt.  Furthermore, this
    disturbance can be eliminated entirely using NO_HZ_FULL on the
    one hand or the rcupdate.rcu_normal boot parameter on the other.
    
    This commit therefore removes checkpatch's complaints about use
    of the expedited RCU primitives.
