And this sorting process is now allegedly complete and available on the
-rcu tree's "dev" branch. As you might have guessed, the major source
of conflicts were with Joel's patches, including one conflict that was
invisible to "git rebase":
1b2530e7d0c3 ("Revert b8c17e6664c4 ("rcu: Maintain special bits at bottom of
->dynticks counter")
03f31532d0ce ("rcu/tree: Add better tracing for dyntick-idle")
a309d5ce2335 ("rcu/tree: Clean up dynticks counter usage")
5c6e734fbaeb ("rcu/tree: Remove dynticks_nmi_nesting counter")
This passes modest rcutorture testing. So far, so good! ;-)
Thanx, Paul
