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.

+config CACHEFILES
+	tristate "Filesystem caching on files"
+	depends on NETFS_SUPPORT && FSCACHE && BLOCK
+	help
+	  This permits use of a mounted filesystem as a cache for other
+	  filesystems - primarily networking filesystems - thus allowing fast
+	  local disk to enhance the speed of slower devices.
+
+	  See Documentation/filesystems/caching/cachefiles.rst for more
+	  information.
+
+config CACHEFILES_DEBUG
+	bool "Debug CacheFiles"
+	depends on CACHEFILES
+	help
+	  This permits debugging to be dynamically enabled in the filesystem
+	  caching on files module.  If this is set, the debugging output may be
+	  enabled by setting bits in /sys/modules/cachefiles/parameter/debug or
+	  by including a debugging specifier in /etc/cachefilesd.conf.
+
+config CACHEFILES_ERROR_INJECTION
+	bool "Provide error injection for cachefiles"
+	depends on CACHEFILES && SYSCTL
+	help
+	  This permits error injection to be enabled in cachefiles whilst a
+	  cache is in service.
+
+config CACHEFILES_ONDEMAND
+	bool "Support for on-demand read"
+	depends on CACHEFILES
+	default n
+	help
+	  This permits userspace to enable the cachefiles on-demand read mode.
+	  In this mode, when a cache miss occurs, responsibility for fetching
+	  the data lies with the cachefiles backend instead of with the netfs
+	  and is delegated to userspace.
+
+	  If unsure, say N.
