      Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "There's not a huge amount of activity in the docs tree this time
  around, but a few significant changes even so:

   - A complete rewriting of the top-level index.rst file, which mostly
     reflects itself in a redone top page in the HTML-rendered docs. The
     hope is that the new organization will be a friendlier starting
     point for both users and developers.

   - Some math-rendering improvements.

   - A coding-style.rst update on the use of BUG() and WARN()

   - A big maintainer-PHP guide update.

   - Some code-of-conduct updates

   - More Chinese translation work

  Plus the usual pile of typo fixes, corrections, and updates"

      Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

 - Documentation updates.

   This is the first in a series from an ongoing review of the RCU
   documentation. "Why are people thinking -that- about RCU? Oh. Because
   that is an entirely reasonable interpretation of its documentation."

 - Miscellaneous fixes.

 - Improved memory allocation and heuristics.

 - Improve rcu_nocbs diagnostic output.

 - Add full-sized polled RCU grace period state values.

   These are the same size as an rcu_head structure, which is double
   that of the traditional unsigned long state values that may still be
   obtained from et_state_synchronize_rcu(). The added size avoids
   missing overlapping grace periods. This benefit is that call_rcu()
   can be replaced by polling, which can be attractive in situations
   where RCU-protected data is aged out of memory.

   Early in the series, the size of this state value is three unsigned
   longs. Later in the series, the fastpaths in synchronize_rcu() and
   synchronize_rcu_expedited() are reworked to permit the full state to
   be represented by only two unsigned longs. This reworking slows these
   two functions down in SMP kernels running either on single-CPU
   systems or on systems with all but one CPU offlined, but this should
   not be a significant problem. And if it somehow becomes a problem in
   some yet-as-unforeseen situations, three-value state values can be
   provided for only those situations.

   Finally, a pair of functions named same_state_synchronize_rcu() and
   same_state_synchronize_rcu_full() allow grace-period state values to
   be compared for equality. This permits users to maintain lists of
   data structures having the same state value, removing the need for
   per-data-structure grace-period state values, thus decreasing memory
   footprint.

 - Polled SRCU grace-period updates, including adding tests to
   rcutorture and reducing the incidence of Tiny SRCU grace-period-state
   counter wrap.

 - Improve Tasks RCU diagnostics and quiescent-state detection.

* tag 'rcu.2022.09.30a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu: (55 commits)

      Pull nolibc updates from Paul McKenney:
 "Most notably greatly improved testing. These tests are located in
  tools/testing/selftests/nolibc. The output of "make help" is as
  follows:

    Supported targets under selftests/nolibc:
      all          call the "run" target below
      help         this help
      sysroot      create the nolibc sysroot here (uses $ARCH)
      nolibc-test  build the executable (uses $CC and $CROSS_COMPILE)
      initramfs    prepare the initramfs with nolibc-test
      defconfig    create a fresh new default config (uses $ARCH)
      kernel       (re)build the kernel with the initramfs (uses $ARCH)
      run          runs the kernel in QEMU after building it (uses $ARCH, $TEST)
      rerun        runs a previously prebuilt kernel in QEMU (uses $ARCH, $TEST)
      clean        clean the sysroot, initramfs, build and output files

    The output file is "run.out". Test ranges may be passed using $TEST.

    Currently using the following variables:
      ARCH          = x86
      CROSS_COMPILE =
      CC            = gcc
      OUTPUT        = /home/git/linux-rcu/tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/
      TEST          =
      QEMU_ARCH     = x86_64 [determined from $ARCH]
      IMAGE_NAME    = bzImage [determined from $ARCH]

  The output of a successful x86 "make run" is currently as follows,
  with kernel build output omitted:

    $ make run
    71 test(s) passed."
