Subject: [PATCH 3/5] Add rcu_barrier_sched() and rcu_barrier_bh()
Date: Sun, 13 Apr 2008 21:02:35 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080414040235.GC30495@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080414035848.GA30005@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Add rcu_barrier_sched() and rcu_barrier_bh().  With these in place,
rcutorture no longer gives the occasional oops when repeatedly starting
and stopping torturing rcu_bh.  Also adds the API needed to flush out
pre-existing call_rcu_sched() callbacks.
