Linus Torvalds 9dacf44c38 Merge branch 'urgent-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu
Pull RCU fix from Paul McKenney:
 "A single commit that fixes a bug that was introduced a couple of merge
  windows ago, but which rather more recently converged to an
  agreed-upon fix. The bug is that interrupts can be incorrectly enabled
  while holding an irq-disabled spinlock. This can of course result in
  self-deadlocks.

  The bug is a bit difficult to trigger. It requires that a preempted
  task be blocking a preemptible-RCU grace period long enough to trigger
  an RCU CPU stall warning. In addition, an interrupt must occur at just
  the right time, and that interrupt's handler must acquire that same
  irq-disabled spinlock. Still, a deadlock is a deadlock.

  Furthermore, we do now have a fix, and that fix survives kernel test
  robot, -next, and rcutorture testing. It has also been verified by
  Sebastian as fixing the bug. Therefore..."

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
