We can just operate on the wq_tail directly (in the process descriptor). This allows us to remove the duplicated tail from the client. While I'm here let's also remove the constants kept in the client and document our locking requirements. This causes a small change in one of GuC debugfs files. We're no longer reporting constant values (which I don't think is a problem), but we're also no longer reporting the tail (does anyone care?). v2: Update tail after wqi contents. (Chris) v3: Really update tail after wqi contents.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
