Subject: [GIT PULL] RCU fixes
Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2012 10:53:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121012085350.GA31140@gmail.com> (raw)
Linus,
Please pull the latest core-rcu-for-linus git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git core-rcu-for-linus
HEAD: c1f8d901d828da1df6d384780829952e7912aeba Merge branch 'rcu/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
This tree includes a shutdown/cpu-hotplug deadlock fix and a
documentation fix.
Thanks,
Ingo
