Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 03/20] doc: Remove rcu_preempt_state reference in stallwarn
Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2018 11:56:28 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181111195645.9205-3-paulmck@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181111195619.GA6958@linux.ibm.com>
From: "Joel Fernandes (Google)" <joel@joelfernandes.org>
Consolidation of RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched into one RCU flavor
to rule them all resulted in the removal of rcu_preempt_state. However,
stallwarn.txt still mentions rcu_preempt_state. This commit therefore
Updates stallwarn documentation accordingly.
