Merge branch 'core-fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip
* 'core-fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:
rcu: Fix whitespace inconsistencies
rcu: Fix thinko, actually initialize full tree
rcu: Apply results of code inspection of kernel/rcutree_plugin.h
rcu: Add WARN_ON_ONCE() consistency checks covering state transitions
rcu: Fix synchronize_rcu() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
rcu: Simplify rcu_read_unlock_special() quiescent-state accounting
rcu: Add debug checks to TREE_PREEMPT_RCU for premature grace periods
rcu: Kconfig help needs to say that TREE_PREEMPT_RCU scales down
rcutorture: Occasionally delay readers enough to make RCU force_quiescent_state
rcu: Initialize multi-level RCU grace periods holding locks
rcu: Need to update rnp->gpnum if preemptable RCU is to be reliable
