Awesome. The patch that exposed that problem hasn't landed yet but I
tested this series and can confirm that it fixes it.

FTR to test I did:

- update function docs for include/linux/rcupdate.h:rcu_pointer_hadoff()

  	removed enclosing '``' and added leading '::'

- apply this series
- rebuild docs
- profit

thanks,
Tobin.
