Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/3] v2 Documentation updates for 3.12

Hello!

This series provides a few documentation updates:

1.	Update rcu_barrier() documentation to note that it no longer is
	guaranteed to wait for a full grace period.  This guarantee was
	a victim of energy efficiency.

2.	Update RTFP documentation.

3.	Fix a control-dependency example in the memory-barriers
	documentation.

Changes from v1 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/17/94):

o	Apply Josh Triplett review comments.

							Thanx, Paul
