Merge tag 'rcu.release.v6.8' of https://github.com/neeraju/linux

Pull RCU updates from Neeraj Upadhyay:

 - Documentation and comment updates

 - RCU torture, locktorture updates that include cleanups; nolibc init
   build support for mips, ppc and rv64; testing of mid stall duration
   scenario and fixing fqs task creation conditions

 - Misc fixes, most notably restricting usage of RCU CPU stall
   notifiers, to confine their usage primarily to debug kernels

 - RCU tasks minor fixes

 - lockdep annotation fix for NMI-safe accesses, callback
   advancing/acceleration cleanup and documentation improvements
