Sasha, sorry to burden you with more testing request.
Could you please try out this new branch? It includes some fixes after Wu Fenguang and
Dan Carpenter reports (not related to your warnings though) and a patch on the top
of the pile to ensure I diagnosed well the problem, which return immediately from
rcu_user_*() APIs if we are in an interrupt.

This way we'll have a clearer view. I also would like to know if there are other
problems with the rcu user mode.

Thanks!

Branch is:
