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.

+FunctionFS Descriptors
+======================
+
+Some of the descriptors that can be written to the FFS gadget are
+described below. Device and configuration descriptors are handled
+by the composite gadget and are not written by the user to the
+FFS gadget.
+
+Descriptors are written to the "ep0" file in the FFS gadget
+following the descriptor header.

+
+Interface Descriptors
+---------------------
+
+Standard USB interface descriptors may be written. The class/subclass of the
+most recent interface descriptor determines what type of class-specific
+descriptors are accepted.
+
+Class-Specific Descriptors
+--------------------------
+
+Class-specific descriptors are accepted only for the class/subclass of the
+most recent interface descriptor. The following are some of the
+class-specific descriptors that are supported.
+
+DFU Functional Descriptor
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When the interface class is USB_CLASS_APP_SPEC and the interface subclass
+is USB_SUBCLASS_DFU, a DFU functional descriptor can be provided.
+The DFU functional descriptor is a described in the USB specification for
+Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU), version 1.1 as of this writing.
