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.

+	bool "Google Firmware Drivers"
+	default n
+	help
+	  These firmware drivers are used by Google servers,
+	  Chromebooks and other devices using coreboot firmware.
+	  If in doubt, say "N".

+config GOOGLE_SMI
+	tristate "SMI interface for Google platforms"
+	depends on X86 && ACPI && DMI
+	help
+	  Say Y here if you want to enable SMI callbacks for Google
+	  platforms.  This provides an interface for writing to and
+	  clearing the event log.  If CONFIG_EFI is also enabled this
+	  driver provides an interface for reading and writing NVRAM
+	  variables.
+
+config GOOGLE_CBMEM
+	tristate "CBMEM entries in sysfs"
+	depends on GOOGLE_COREBOOT_TABLE
+	help
+	  CBMEM is a downwards-growing memory region created by the
+	  Coreboot BIOS containing tagged data structures from the
+	  BIOS.  These data structures expose things like the verified
+	  boot firmware variables, flash layout, firmware event log,
+	  and more.
+
+	  This option enables the cbmem module, which causes the
+	  kernel to search for Coreboot CBMEM entries, and expose the
+	  memory for each entry in sysfs under
+	  /sys/bus/coreboot/devices/cbmem-<id>.
+
+config GOOGLE_COREBOOT_TABLE
+	tristate "Coreboot Table Access"
+	depends on HAS_IOMEM && (ACPI || OF)
+	help
+	  This option enables the coreboot_table module, which provides other
+	  firmware modules access to the coreboot table. The coreboot table
+	  pointer is accessed through the ACPI "GOOGCB00" object or the
+	  device tree node /firmware/coreboot.
+	  If unsure say N.

+	depends on X86 && ACPI && DMI
+	select GOOGLE_MEMCONSOLE
+	help
+	  This option enables the kernel to search for a firmware log in
+	  the EBDA on Google servers.  If found, this log is exported to
+	  userland in the file /sys/firmware/log.
+
+config GOOGLE_FRAMEBUFFER_COREBOOT
+	tristate "Coreboot Framebuffer"
+	depends on GOOGLE_COREBOOT_TABLE
+	help
+	  This option enables the kernel to search for a framebuffer in
+	  the coreboot table.  If found, it is registered with a platform
+	  device of type coreboot-framebuffer. Using the old device of
+	  type simple-framebuffer is deprecated.
+
+config GOOGLE_MEMCONSOLE_COREBOOT
+	tristate "Firmware Memory Console"
