Cover letter [RFC PATCH -rt 0/2] RCU priority boosting that survives semi-vicious testing

Hello!

This is an update of the patch at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/01/15/219.
This series contains (1) the RCU-boost patch itself and (2) some rcutorture modifications to test it more thoroughly. This version is getting quite close.

There is still no OOM tie-in. As before, dynamic adjustment of the booster's priority will dynamically adjust the boostees.

Thanx, Paul
