2.	Add mid-boot operation to expedited grace periods.

3.	Update stallwarn.txt to make causes more prominent.

4.	Update RCU data-structure documentation for rcu_segcblist.
	(Corresponding code changes are in the SRCU series.)

5.	Update requirements based on recent changes.

6.	doc: Update rcu_assign_pointer() definition in whatisRCU.txt.

7.	Update the comparisons rule in rcu_dereference.txt, courtesy

	courtesy of pierre Kuo.

							Thanx, Paul
