Hello!

This patch series updates documentation and rcutorture:

1. Update documentation to allow for the new call_srcu() and
srcu_barrier() functions.
2. Fix ordering of the torture_ops list.
3. Make rcutorture actually test the new srcu_barrier() function.
4. Fix synchronization of the kthreads testing the various
rcu_barrier() functions.
5. Fix an incorrect (and quite confusing) message in rcutorture.
6. Make rcutorture's fakewriters occasionally invoke the appropriate
rcu_barrier() function so that we test concurrent rcu_barrier()
calls.

Thanx, Paul
