Subject: [GIT PULL rcu/srcu] SRCU commits for 3.9

Hello, Ingo,

This series contains SRCU changes for 3.9.  These include debugging aids,
updates that move towards the goal of permitting srcu_read_lock() and
srcu_read_unlock() to be used from idle and offline CPUs, and a few small
fixes.  These commits are available in the git repository at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu.git rcu/srcu

							Thanx, Paul
