Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/2] Documentation changes for 3.11

Hello!

A pair of documentation changes.  These are not directly related to RCU,
but if no one adopts them, I will send them up with the RCU commits.  The
patches are as follows:

1.	Changes to the new Documentation/timers/NO_HZ.txt documentation
	based on review comments from Sedat Dilek.

2.	Document ways of turning off the scheduling-clock tick even when
	there is more than one runnable task on a given CPU.

3.	Document ways of avoiding OS jitter form the kworker workqueue
	kthreads.

							Thanx, Paul
