Subject: [PATCH, RFC] rcu-state

Hi,

Just to keep you updated:
I've fixed further bugs.
The code survived concurrent kernel compiles and cpu online/offline on a 
4-cpu system.

The code tries to minimize the operations between call_rcu() and the 
final rcu destruction callback.
It should achieve a lower latency than the current rcu backends, but I 
haven't written a benchmark yet.

Comments are welcome.
