Subject: [GIT PULL rcu/urgent] Fix for 3.17

Hello, Ingo,

This series contains a single commit fixing an initialization bug
reported by Amit Shah and fixed by Pranith Kumar (and tested by Amit).
This bug results in a boot-time hang in callback-offloaded configurations
where callbacks were posted before the offloading ("rcuo") kthreads
were created.  This has been exposed to -next testing, and is available
in the git repository at:

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