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.

+SYNOPSIS
+========
+**rtla timerlat** [*MODE*] ...
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+.. include:: common_timerlat_description.txt
+
+The **rtla timerlat top** mode displays a summary of the periodic output
+from the *timerlat* tracer. The **rtla timerlat hist** mode displays
+a histogram of each tracer event occurrence. For further details, please
+refer to the respective man page.
+
+MODES
+=====
+**top**
+
+        Prints the summary from *timerlat* tracer.
+
+**hist**
+
+        Prints a histogram of timerlat samples.
+
+If no *MODE* is given, the top mode is called, passing the arguments.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+**-h**, **--help**
+
+        Display the help text.
+
+For other options, see the man page for the corresponding mode.
