Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/4] SRCU changes for v4.19

Hello!

This series contains SRCU updates:

1.	Fix typos in __call_srcu() comment header.

2.	Document that srcu_funnel_gp_start() implies srcu_funnel_exp_start().

3.	Add address of the first callback to rcutorture output to allow
	this output to show (lack of) forward progress.

4.	Introduce srcu_read_{un,}lock_notrace() to avoid lockdep issues
	when applying SRCU to tracepoints.

							Thanx, Paul
