Subject: linux-next: build warning after merge of the rcu tree

Hi all,

After merging the rcu tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig)
produced this warning:

WARNING: "rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp" [vmlinux] is a static EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL

Introduced by commit

  cbd703932774 ("rcu-tasks: Add an RCU-tasks rude variant")

Why is all that code in a header file?  Do you intend to have those
functions defined in each C file that includes kernel/rcu/tasks.h?

Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell
