Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/6] Torture-test updates for 4.3

Hello!

This series contains torture-test updates:

1.	Improve bounds checking for n_barrier_cbs: No more negatives.

2.	Improve bounds checking for nfakewriters: No more negatives.

3.	Improve bounds checking for shuffle_interval: No more negatives.

4.	Fix rcu_torture_cbflood() for callback-free RCU to avoid
	occasional segfaults when disabled.

5.	Add RCU-tasks qualifier to dereference to avoid lockdep
	false positives during torture testing.

6.	Enable lockdep-RCU on TASKS01 to improve test coverage.

							Thanx, Paul
