Subject: rcu_batches_completed() prototype cleanup
From: Steven Rostedt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
rcu_batches_completed and rcu_patches_completed_bh are both declared in
rcuclassic.h and rcupreempt.h. This patch removes the extra prototypes for
them from rcupdate.h.
rcu_batches_completed_bh is defined as a static inline in the rcupreempt.h
header file. Trying to export this as EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL causes section
problems with the powerpc compiler. There's no need to export a static
inlined function.
Modules must be compiled with the same type of RCU implementation as the
kernel they are for.
