Cover letter [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/3] Documentation updates for 3.12

Hello!

This series provides a few documentation updates:

1. Update rcu_barrier() documentation to note that it no longer is
guaranteed to wait for a full grace period. This guarantee was a victim of energy efficiency.

2. Update RTFP documentation.

3. Fix a control-dependency example in the memory-barriers
documentation.

Thanx, Paul
