Hello!

The following fixes are intended for 3.9:

1.	Fix int/long type confusion in trace_rcu_start_batch().
2.	Declare rcu_is_cpu_rrupt_from_idle() static, courtesy of
	Josh Triplett.
3.	Make rcu_eqs_enter_common() trace the new nesting value instead
	of zero, courtesy of Li Zhong.
4.	Silence a gcc array-out-of-bounds false positive in rcu_init_one().
5.	Code style fix in rcu_torture_barrier_init(), courtesy of Sasha Levin.
6.	Grammar fix to rcu_scheduler_active comment, courtesy of Cody
	Schafer.
7.	Consolidate RCU's debugging Kconfig options, courtesy of Dave Hansen.
8.	Remove unused context-tracker functions, courtesy of Li Zhong.
9.	Remove obsolete Kconfig option from header comment.
10.	Add comments to new context-tracking functions and internals,
	courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

Changes since v1:
