Ugh, my apologies Paul. I didn't realize 0cd7e350abc4 ("rcu: Make SRCU mandatory")
is already in Linus' tree, i.e. bundling this in a single patch was unnecessary work
for you.

Anyways, since there isn't an external dependency, this can go through the KVM
tree. Unless you prefer to take it directly, I'll make sure Paolo sends it along
at some point before v6.2 final.
