The rcu_accelerate_cbs() function selects a grace-period target, which it uses to have rcu_segcblist_accelerate() assign numbers to recently queued callbacks. Then it invokes rcu_start_future_gp(), which selects a grace-period target again, which is a bit pointless. This commit therefore changes rcu_start_future_gp() to take the grace-period target as a parameter, thus avoiding double selection. This commit also changes the name of rcu_start_future_gp() to rcu_start_this_gp() to reflect this change in functionality, and also makes a similar change to the name of trace_rcu_future_gp().

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
