Pull RCU update from Ingo Molnar:
 "The major features of this tree are:

     1. A first version of no-callbacks CPUs.  This version prohibits
        offlining CPU 0, but only when enabled via CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y.
        Relaxing this constraint is in progress, but not yet ready
        for prime time.  These commits were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/724.

     2. Changes to SRCU that allows statically initialized srcu_struct
        structures.  These commits were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/296.

     3. Restructuring of RCU's debugfs output.  These commits were posted
        to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/341.

     4. Additional CPU-hotplug/RCU improvements, posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/327.
        Note that the commit eliminating __stop_machine() was judged to
        be too-high of risk, so is deferred to 3.9.

     5. Changes to RCU's idle interface, most notably a new module
        parameter that redirects normal grace-period operations to
        their expedited equivalents.  These were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/739.

     6. Additional diagnostics for RCU's CPU stall warning facility,
        posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/315.
        The most notable change reduces the
        default RCU CPU stall-warning time from 60 seconds to 21 seconds,
        so that it once again happens sooner than the softlockup timeout.

     7. Documentation updates, which were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/280.
        A couple of late-breaking changes were posted at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/634 and
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/547.

     8. Miscellaneous fixes, which were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/309.

     9. Finally, a fix for an lockdep-RCU splat was posted to LKML
        at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/7/486."
