Merge branch 'core-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull RCU fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "Two RCU patches: - Address a serious performance regression on open/close caused by commit ac1bea85781e ("Make cond_resched() report RCU quiescent states") - Export RCU debug functions. Not a regression, but enablement to address a serious recursion bug in the sl*b allocators in 3.17" * 'core-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: rcu: Reduce overhead of cond_resched() checks for RCU rcu: Export debug_init_rcu_head() and and debug_init_rcu_head()
