Linus Torvalds 1e57930e9f RCU pull request for v5.19
This pull request contains the following branches:
 
 docs.2022.04.20a: Documentation updates.
 
 fixes.2022.04.20a: Miscellaneous fixes.
 
 nocb.2022.04.11b: Callback-offloading updates, mainly simplifications.
 
 rcu-tasks.2022.04.11b: RCU-tasks updates, including some -rt fixups,
 	handling of systems with sparse CPU numbering, and a fix for a
 	boot-time race-condition failure.
 
 srcu.2022.05.03a: Put SRCU on a memory diet in order to reduce the size
 	of the srcu_struct structure.
 
 torture.2022.04.11b: Torture-test updates fixing some bugs in tests and
 	closing some testing holes.
 
 torture-tasks.2022.04.20a: Torture-test updates for the RCU tasks flavors,
 	most notably ensuring that building rcutorture and friends does
 	not change the RCU-tasks-related Kconfig options.
 
 torturescript.2022.04.20a: Torture-test scripting updates.
 
 exp.2022.05.11a: Expedited grace-period updates, most notably providing
 	milliseconds-scale (not all that) soft real-time response from
 	synchronize_rcu_expedited().  This is also the first time in
 	almost 30 years of RCU that someone other than me has pushed
 	for a reduction in the RCU CPU stall-warning timeout, in this
 	case by more than three orders of magnitude from 21 seconds to
 	20 milliseconds.  This tighter timeout applies only to expedited
 	grace periods.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
