Subject: [PATCH rcu 0/7] RCU documentation updates for v6.1

Hello!

This series contains documentation updates:

1.	Emphasize the need for explicit RCU read-side markers.

2.	Call out queue_rcu_work() for blocking RCU callbacks.

3.	Use rcu_barrier() to rate-limit RCU callbacks.

4.	Fix list: rcu_access_pointer() is not lockdep-checked.

5.	Update rcu_access_pointer() advice in rcu_dereference.rst.

6.	SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU uses cannot rely on spinlocks.

7.	Update LWN article URLs and add 2019 article, courtesy of
	Shao-Tse Hung.

						Thanx, Paul
