Yeah, good point - I distilled that list in the merge commit itself (see commit bdd4431c8d071491a68a65d9457996f222b5ecd3) - should have exported that to the pull request itself: >>From bdd4431c8d071491a68a65d9457996f222b5ecd3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2012 10:16:01 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Merge branch 'rcu/next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu The major features of this series are: - making RCU more aggressive about entering dyntick-idle mode in order to improve energy efficiency - converting a few more call_rcu()s to kfree_rcu()s - applying a number of rcutree fixes and cleanups to rcutiny - removing CONFIG_SMP #ifdefs from treercu - allowing RCU CPU stall times to be set via sysfs - adding CPU-stall capability to rcutorture - adding more RCU-abuse diagnostics - updating documentation - fixing yet more issues located by the still-ongoing top-to-bottom inspection of RCU, this time with a special focus on the CPU-hotplug code path. Thanks, Ingo
