Subject: [GIT PULL] RCU changes for v6.13

Merge branches 'rcu/fixes', 'rcu/nocb', 'rcu/torture', 'rcu/stall' and 'rcu/srcu' into rcu/dev (2024-11-15 22:38:53 +0100)

RCU pull request for v6.13
SRCU:
- Introduction of the new SRCU-lite flavour with a new pair of
srcu_read_[un]lock_lite() APIs. In practice the read side using
this flavour becomes lighter by removing a full memory barrier on
LOCK and a full memory barrier on UNLOCK. This comes at the
expense of a higher latency write side with two (in the best case
of a snaphot of unused read-sides) or more RCU grace periods on
the update side which now assumes by itself the whole full
ordering guarantee against the LOCK/UNLOCK counters on both
indexes, along with the accesses performed inside.
Uretprobes is a known potential user.
Note this doesn't replace the default normal flavour of SRCU which
still behaves the same as usual.
- Add testing of SRCU-lite through rcutorture and rcuscale
- Various cleanups on the way.
FIXES:
- Allow short-circuiting RCU-TASKS-RUDE grace periods on architectures
that have sane noinstr boundaries forbidding tracing on low-level
idle and kernel entry code. RCU-TASKS is enough on such configurations
because it involves an RCU grace period that waits for all idle
tasks to either schedule out voluntarily or enter into RCU
unwatched noinstr code.
- Allow and test start_poll_synchronize_rcu() with IRQs disabled.
- Mention rcuog kthreads in relevant documentation and Kconfig help
- Various fixes and consolidations
RCUTORTURE:
- Add --no-affinity on tools to leave the affinity setting of guests
up to the user.
- Add guest_os_delay parameter to rcuscale for better warm-up
control.
- Fix and improve some rcuscale error handling.
- Various cleanups and fixes
STALL:
- Remove dead code
- Stop dumping tasks if a stalled grace period eventually ended
midway as that only produces confusing output.
- Optimize detection of stalling CPUs and avoid useless node
locking otherwise.
NOCB:
- Fix rcu_barrier() hang due to a race against callbacks
deoffloading. This is not yet used, except by rcutorture, and
waits for its promised cpusets interface.
- Remove leftover function declaration
