Cover letter [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/5] Documentation changes for 4.4
Hello!
This series contains a few documentation updates:
1. Clearly state that RCU readers have no acquire/release semantics.
2. Call out slow consoles as a cause of stall warnings.
3. Update whatisRCU() to show rcu_dereference_protected(),
courtesy of Jason A. Donenfeld.
4. Catch up list of torture_type options.
5. Add lockless_dereference() to memory-barriers.txt.
Thanx, Paul
