Cover letter [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/6] Documentation updates for 3.21^W4.1
Hello!
This series contains a few documentation updates:
1. Record the fact that the rcutree.kthread_prio kernel boot parameter
also controls the priority of the grace-period kthreads.
2. Update the kernel-per-CPU-kthreads.txt documentation based on
Christoph Lameter's on-demand vmstat workers commit.
3. Update NO_HZ.txt documentation to reflect the fact that POSIX
timers are no longer starved on adaptive-ticks CPUs.
4. Update kernel-per-CPU-kthreads.txt documentation to reflect
workqueue usage and nosoftlockup boot parameter.
5. Clarify memory-barrier semantics of atomic operations.
6. Clarify control-dependency pairing.
Thanx, Paul
