Changes:

Make expedited grace periods expedite normal RCU callbacks

Miscellaneous fixes:
 * Improve diagnostic output with character task states.
 * Mark accesses to inform KCSAN of concurrency design.
 * Move from kmalloc() to kmalloc_obj().
 * Documentation updates.
 * Improve handling of RCU deferred quiescent states.
 * Clean up unused function arguments and structure fields.
 * Reduce show_rcu_gp_kthreads() stack space.

Tasks RCU updates:
 * Clean up after SRCU re-implementation of Tasks Trace RCU.
 * Mark accesses to inform KCSAN of concurrency design.
 * Add ->lazy_timer status to diagnostic output.
 * Remove an unnecessary memory barrier.
 * Fix a data race, courtesy of KCSAN.
 * Documentation updates.
 * Convert cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() from macro to static inline
   function.

SRCU updates:
 * Add Rust helpers for SRCU.
 * Avoid losing queued work at cleanup_srcu_struct() time.

Torture-test updates:
 * Preparation work for immediate RCU priority deboosting.
 * Test RCU readers from real interrupt handlers (as opposed to softirq).
 * Simplify code through use of cpumask_next_wrap().
 * Improve diagnostic output with character task states.
 * Add rcutorture.nwriters parameter to allow lightweight stall testing,
   and rcutorture.stall_only to make doing so easier.
 * Test an RCU Tasks Trace grace period implying an RCU grace period.
 * Make RCU Tasks Trace torturing track reader batches.
 * Fix a data race, courtesy of KCSAN.
 * Plug a shuffle_tmp_mask memory leak on kthread spawn failure.

+What:		/sys/block/*/device/sw_activity
+Date:		Jun, 2008
+KernelVersion:	v2.6.27
+Contact:	linux-ide@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+		(RW) Used by drivers which support software controlled activity
+		LEDs.
+
+		It has the following valid values:
+
+		==	========================================================
+		0	OFF - the LED is not activated on activity
+		1	BLINK_ON - the LED blinks on every 10ms when activity is
+			detected.
+		2	BLINK_OFF - the LED is on when idle, and blinks off
+			every 10ms when activity is detected.
+		==	========================================================
+
+		Note that the user must turn sw_activity OFF it they wish to
+		control the activity LED via the em_message file.

+What:		/sys/block/*/device/unload_heads
+Date:		Sep, 2008
+KernelVersion:	v2.6.28
+Contact:	linux-ide@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+		(RW) Hard disk shock protection
+
+		Writing an integer value to this file will take the heads of the
+		respective drive off the platter and block all I/O operations
+		for the specified number of milliseconds.
+
+		- If the device does not support the unload heads feature,
+		  access is denied with -EOPNOTSUPP.
+		- The maximal value accepted for a timeout is 30000
+		  milliseconds.
+		- A previously set timeout can be cancelled and disk can resume
+		  normal operation immediately by specifying a timeout of 0.
+		- Some hard drives only comply with an earlier version of the
+		  ATA standard, but support the unload feature nonetheless.
+		  There is no safe way Linux can detect these devices, so this
+		  is not enabled by default. If it is known that your device
+		  does support the unload feature, then you can tell the kernel
+		  to enable it by writing -1. It can be disabled again by
+		  writing -2.
+		- Values below -2 are rejected with -EINVAL
+
+		For more information, see
+		Documentation/admin-guide/laptops/disk-shock-protection.rst

+Description:

+		feature, write to the file to turn on or off the feature.
+		By default this feature is turned off.
+		Writing "1" to this file enables the use of command duration
+		limits for read and write commands in the kernel and turns on
+		the feature on the device. Writing "0" disables the feature.
