As Dave Jones pointed out, this one is not yet in mainline. Here is the corresponding patch.

rcu: Don't allocate bootmem from rcu_init()
When rcu_init() is called we already have slab working, allocating bootmem at that point results in warnings and an allocation from slab. This commit therefore changes alloc_bootmem_cpumask_var() to alloc_cpumask_var() in rcu_bootup_announce_oddness(), which is called from rcu_init().
