Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/4] linked-list updates for 4.5

Hello!

This series contains a few linked-list updates:

1.	Use WRITE_ONCE() when adding to lists and hlists (reported
	by KTSAN).

2.	Use READ_ONCE() when testing for empty lists (reported by
	KTSAN).

3.	Introduce generic list_splice_tail_init_rcu(), courtesy of
	Petko Manolov.

4.	Use WRITE_ONCE() when initializing list_head structures (reported
	by KTSAN).

							Thanx, Paul
