Linus Torvalds b69bea8a65 A set of fixes for lockdep, tracing and RCU:
- Prevent recursion by using raw_cpu_* operations
 
   - Fixup the interrupt state in the cpu idle code to be consistent
 
   - Push rcu_idle_enter/exit() invocations deeper into the idle path so
     that the lock operations are inside the RCU watching sections
 
   - Move trace_cpu_idle() into generic code so it's called before RCU goes
     idle.
 
   - Handle raw_local_irq* vs. local_irq* operations correctly
 
   - Move the tracepoints out from under the lockdep recursion handling
     which turned out to be fragile and inconsistent.

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.
