Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/8] Miscellaneous fixes for v5.1

Hello!

This series contains miscellaneous fixes:

1.	Add docbook for rcu_head_init() and rcu_head_after_call_rcu().

2.	Rename rcu_check_callbacks() to rcu_sched_clock_irq().

3.	Rename rcu_process_callbacks() to rcu_core() for Tree RCU.

4.	Remove preemption disabling from expedited CPU selection.

5.	Repair rcu_nmi_exit() docbook header.

6.	Fix obsolete DYNTICK_IRQ_NONIDLE comment.

7.	Add sparse check to rcu_assign_pointer(), courtesy of Joel
	Fernandes.

8.	Move CONTEXT_TRACKING Kconfig option to kernel/time/Kconfig.

							Thanx, Paul
