Subject: [GIT PULL rcu/next] One more RCU commit for 3.8

Hello, Ingo,

Could you please pull one more commit?  This is an update to Frederic
Weisbecker's context-tracking subsystem that is another stepping stone
towards adaptive-idle and tickless userspace execution.  This has been
subjected to -next testing.  It does give two checkpatch.pl errors,
but these are on cpp macro definitions used within assembly code -- and
following checkpatch.pl's suggestions would result in assembler errors.
(I have reported this to Andy Whitcroft, checkpatch.pl's maintainer.)

These changes are available in the git repository at:
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu.git rcu/next

							Thanx, Paul
