Subject: [GIT PULL rcu/next] RCU commits for 4.10

Hello, Ingo,

This series contains the following changes:

1.	Documentation updates, yet again just simple changes.

	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161114164649.GA15056@linux.vnet.ibm.com

2.	Miscellaneous fixes, including a change to call_rcu()'s
	rcu_head alignment check.

	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161114165648.GA15216@linux.vnet.ibm.com

3.	Security-motivated list consistency checks, which are
	disabled by default behind DEBUG_LIST.

	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161114175500.GA21637@linux.vnet.ibm.com

4.	Torture-test updates.

	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161114175924.GA23488@linux.vnet.ibm.com

All of these changes have been subjected to 0day Test Robot and -next
testing, and are available in the git repository at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu.git for-mingo
