Subject: [GIT PULL events/urgent] Protect access via task_subsys_state_check()

Hello, Ingo,

This pull request is for an RCU-related bug fix in perf_event_comm().
Without this fix, RCU-lockdep splats and other failures result.

This fix is available in the git repository at:

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

It has been subjected to -next testing and was posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/19/403.

							Thanx, Paul
