Subject: [PATCH 0/3] srcu: Fix boot stall

This is a fix for a boot stall that can be reproduced with
"rcupdate.rcu_self_test=1" and CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y.

It should be easy to trigger if you set CONFIG_MAXSMP=y and you don't
actually have thousands of CPUs.

HEAD: 6390b2aa1295f79150fac8f5ff60177eea5d8f8b

Thanks,
	Frederic
