Subject: [PATCH -tip/core/rcu 3/6] Simplify RCU CPU-hotplug notification

From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

Use the new cpu_notifier() API to simplify RCU's CPU-hotplug
notifiers, collapsing down to a single such notifier.  This
makes it trivial to provide the notifier-ordering guarantee
that rcu_barrier() depends on.  Also remove redundant
open_softirq() calls from Hierarchical RCU notifier.
