rcu_report_dead() and rcutree_migrate_callbacks() have their headers in
rcupdate.h while those are pure rcutree calls, like the other CPU-hotplug
functions.
Also rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() have different naming
conventions while they mirror each other's effects.

Line numbers in code snippets in rcubarrier.rst have beed left adjusted
since commit 4af498306f ("doc: Convert to rcubarrier.txt to ReST").
This might have been because right adjusting them had confused Sphinx.
The rules around a literal block in reST are:
- Need a blank line above it.
- A line with the same indent level as the line above it is regarded
as the end of it.
Those line numbers can be right adjusted by keeping indents at two-
digit numbers. While at it, add some spaces between the column of line
numbers and the code area for better readability.

- Core:
- The timer_shutdown[_sync]() infrastructure:
Tearing down timers can be tedious when there are circular
dependencies to other things which need to be torn down. A prime
example is timer and workqueue where the timer schedules work and the
work arms the timer.
What needs to prevented is that pending work which is drained via
destroy_workqueue() does not rearm the previously shutdown
timer. Nothing in that shutdown sequence relies on the timer being
functional.
The conclusion was that the semantics of timer_shutdown_sync() should
be:
- timer is not enqueued
- timer callback is not running
- timer cannot be rearmed
Preventing the rearming of shutdown timers is done by discarding rearm
attempts silently. A warning for the case that a rearm attempt of a
shutdown timer is detected would not be really helpful because it's
entirely unclear how it should be acted upon. The only way to address
such a case is to add 'if (in_shutdown)' conditionals all over the
place. This is error prone and in most cases of teardown not required
all.
- The real fix for the bluetooth HCI teardown based on
timer_shutdown_sync().
A larger scale conversion to timer_shutdown_sync() is work in
progress.
- Consolidation of VDSO time namespace helper functions
- Small fixes for timer and timerqueue
- Drivers:
- Prevent integer overflow on the XGene-1 TVAL register which causes
an never ending interrupt storm.
- The usual set of new device tree bindings
- Small fixes and improvements all over the place
