thanks Gautham, the patchset from you and Paul looks good to me and i've applied it to sched-devel.git to get it tested and reviewed some more.
from the Nitpicking Police, there are a couple of minor style problems/warnings with the code, you can see it via:
scripts/checkpatch.pl --file kernel/rcu*.c
nothing serious - RCU is still one of the cleanest subsystems in the kernel:
errors lines of code errors/KLOC kernel/rcuclassic.c 0 575 0 kernel/rcupdate.c 1 138 7.2 kernel/rcupreempt.c 0 953 0 kernel/rcupreempt_trace.c 0 330 0 kernel/rcutorture.c 8 995 8.0
the eventual goal would be to match:
scripts/checkpatch.pl --file kernel/sched*.[ch]
output ;-)
