When using rcutorture as a module, there are a number of conditions that can abort the modprobe operation, for example, when attempting to run both RCU CPU stall warning tests and forward-progress tests. This can cause rcu_torture_cleanup() to be invoked on the unwind path out of rcu_rcu_torture_init(), which will mean that rcu_gp_slow_unregister() is invoked without a matching rcu_gp_slow_register(). This will cause a splat because rcu_gp_slow_unregister() is passed rcu_fwd_cb_nodelay, which does not match a NULL pointer. This commit therefore forgives a mismatch involving a NULL pointer, thus avoiding this false-positive splat. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
