Linus Torvalds c0b9620bc3 RCU pull request for v6.10
This pull request contains the following branches:
 
 fixes.2024.04.15a: Fix a lockdep complain for lazy-preemptible kernel,
 remove redundant BH disable for TINY_RCU, remove redundant READ_ONCE()
 in tree.c, fix false positives KCSAN splat and fix buffer overflow in
 the print_cpu_stall_info().
 
 misc.2024.04.12a: Misc updates related to bpf, tracing and update the
 MAINTAINERS file.
 
 rcu-sync-normal-improve.2024.04.15a: An improvement of a normal
 synchronize_rcu() call in terms of latency. It maintains a separate
 track for sync. users only. This approach bypasses per-cpu nocb-lists
 thus sync-users do not depend on nocb-list length and how fast regular
 callbacks are processed.
 
 rcu-tasks.2024.04.15a: RCU tasks, switch tasks RCU grace periods to
 sleep at TASK_IDLE priority, fix some comments, add some diagnostic
 warning to the exit_tasks_rcu_start() and fix a buffer overflow in
 the show_rcu_tasks_trace_gp_kthread().
 
 rcutorture.2024.04.15a: Increase memory to guest OS, fix a Tasks
 Rude RCU testing, some updates for TREE09, dump mode information
 to debug GP kthread state, remove redundant READ_ONCE(), fix some
 comments about RCU_TORTURE_PIPE_LEN and pipe_count, remove some
 redundant pointer initialization, fix a hung splat task by when
 the rcutorture tests start to exit, fix invalid context warning,
 add '--do-kvfree' parameter to torture test and use slow register
 unregister callbacks only for rcutype test.

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 reStructuredText 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.
