Hmm, thinking about it some more. Wouldn't it make more sense to push
this through trivial tree (CCing Jikos)? Having 5 or so patches with the
exactly same changelog sounds overkill to me.
What do you think? Could you give me your Acked-by if you are OK with
it, please?
Just for reference the original, patch:

Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Do not use rcu_read_lock_held when calling
rcu_dereference_check
Since ca5ecddf (rcu: define __rcu address space modifier for sparse)
rcu_dereference_check use rcu_read_lock_held as a part of condition
automatically so callers do not have to do that as well.
