Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 4/4] Fix synchronize_rcu() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
The redirection of synchronize_sched() to synchronize_rcu() was appropriate
for TREE_RCU, but not for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU. Fix this by creating an
underlying synchronize_sched(). TREE_RCU then redirects synchronize_rcu()
to synchronize_sched(), while TREE_PREEMPT_RCU has its own version of
synchronize_rcu().
