Subject: [GIT PULL] RCU changes for v4.7

Linus,

Please pull the latest core-rcu-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git core-rcu-for-linus

   # HEAD: 41ed943d855c3fa2bf6fecc33250b294bd568b7a Merge branch 'for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu

The main changes are:

  * Documentation updates, including fixes to the design-level
    requirements documentation and a fixed version of the design-level
    data-structure documentation.  These fixes include removing
    cartoons and getting rid of the html/htmlx duplication.
    
  * Further improvements to the new-age expedited grace periods.
    
  * Miscellaneous fixes.
    
  * Torture-test changes, including a new rcuperf module for measuring
    RCU grace-period performance and scalability, which is useful for
    the expedited-grace-period changes.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
