Subject: [PATCH tip/core/urgent] rcu: updates for RCU lockdep

Hello!

These four patches provides a pair of new APIs and documentation to handle
a couple of cases that David Howells came across when running an NFS
workload under CONFIG_PROVE_RCU, along with some comment improvements
suggested by David and also some by Yong Zhang.

							Thanx, Paul
