PATCH 1/1 rcu: ensure whatisRCU.txt actually says what RCU is.

It came to my attention that the file "whatisRCU.txt" does not manage to actually ever spell out what is RCU.

This might not be an issue for a lot of people, but we have to assume the consumers of these documents are starting from ground zero; otherwise they'd not be reading the docs.

Queued for review, thank you!

Thanx, Paul
