[PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/7] Miscellaneous fixes for 4.10

["Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Hello!

This series contains miscellaneous fixes to RCU:

1.	Tighten up __call_rcu's alignment check for the rcu_head structure
	now that no arch does two-byte alignment of pointers.

2.	Remove obsolete comment about when rcu_check_callbacks() was invoked.

3.	Remove obsolete comment about which function opportunistically
	notes grace periods beginnings and endings.

4.	Update the RCU_TRACE Kconfig option's help text to note that
	it enables event tracing in addition to debugfs, courtesy of
	Nikolay Borisov.

5.	Add event tracing for long read-side delays in rcutorture
	in order to better debug too-short grace periods.

6.	Make expedited grace periods recheck dyntick-idle state to avoid
	sending needless IPIs.

7.	Don't kick CPUs unless there is grace-period activity currently
	in progress.

							Thanx, Paul
