Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/16] Miscellaneous fixes for v5.11

Hello!

This series contains miscellaneous fixes:

1.	Don't invoke try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled.

2.	Move x86's rcu_cpu_starting() earlier.

3.	Panic after fixed number of stalls.

4.	Update list.h comment to explicitly note circular lists.

5.	Implement rcu_segcblist_is_offloaded() config dependent.

6.	Fix single-CPU check in rcu_blocking_is_gp().

7.	Clarify nocb kthreads naming in RCU_NOCB_CPU config.

8.	Add a warning if CPU being onlined did not report QS already.

9.	Make struct kernel_param_ops definitions const.

10.	Fix ftrace recursion.

11.	nocb: Avoid raising softirq for offloaded ready-to-execute CBs.

12.	Prevent lockdep-RCU splats on lock acquisition/release.

13.	Fix a typo in rcu_blocking_is_gp() header comment.

14.	Do not report strict GPs for outgoing CPUs.

15.	Defer kvfree_rcu() allocation to a clean context.

16.	Take early exit on memory-allocation failure.

						Thanx, Paul
