Merge branch 'rcu/next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu

Pull the v3.5 RCU tree from Paul E. McKenney:

 1)	A set of improvements and fixes to the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ feature
	(with more on the way for 3.6).  Posted to LKML:
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/324 (commits 1-3 and 5),
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/611 (commit 4),
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/30/390 (commit 6), and
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/4/410 (commit 7, combined with
	the other commits for the convenience of the tester).

 2)	Changes to make rcu_barrier() avoid disrupting execution of CPUs
	that have no RCU callbacks.  Posted to LKML:
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/322.

 3)	A couple of commits that improve the efficiency of the interaction
	between preemptible RCU and the scheduler, these two being all
	that survived an abortive attempt to allow preemptible RCU's
	__rcu_read_lock() to be inlined.  The full set was posted to
	LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/14/143, and the first and
	third patches of that set remain.

 4)	Lai Jiangshan's algorithmic implementation of SRCU, which includes
	call_srcu() and srcu_barrier().  A major feature of this new
	implementation is that synchronize_srcu() no longer disturbs
	the execution of other CPUs.  This work is based on earlier
	implementations by Peter Zijlstra and Paul E. McKenney.  Posted to
	LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/22/82.

 5)	A number of miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements which were
	posted to LKML at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/353 with
	subsequent updates posted to LKML.
