Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] rcu: Make rcu_normal_after_boot writable again

Hi,

v2 of a proposed RCU change to make rcu_normal_after_boot feature usable
on PREEMPT_RT as well, as it turns out it's useful on RT as well on
NO_HZ_FULL configurations.

v2 gained an additional patch to revise rcu update module parameters
permissions (as suggested during v1 review [1]).

Changes wrt v1:

 - Restrict the option to !PREEMPT_RT || NO_HZ_FULL (Paul, Sebastian)
 - Change module params permissions (Paul) (02/02)

Thanks,
Juri

v1 - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210805080123.16320-1-juri.lelli@redhat.com/
