From: Paul E. McKenney on 9 Apr 2010 18:40 Hello! These four patches provides a pair of new APIs and documentation to handle a couple of cases that David Howells came across when running an NFS workload under CONFIG_PROVE_RCU, along with some comment improvements suggested by David and also some by Yong Zhang. Updated from v1 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/9/28) to reflect David's and Eric Dumazet's comments: o Remove (void*) cast from rcu_access_pointer(). o Merge identical definitions of rcu_access_pointer() outside of #ifdef. o Merge comment syntax-error fix into comment patch.
