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 EXT2_FS
+	tristate "Second extended fs support (DEPRECATED)"
+	select BUFFER_HEAD
+	select FS_IOMAP
+	help
+	  Ext2 is a standard Linux file system for hard disks.
+
+	  This filesystem driver is deprecated because it does not properly
+	  support inode time stamps beyond 03:14:07 UTC on 19 January 2038.
+
+	  Ext2 users are advised to use ext4 driver to access their filesystem.
+	  The driver is fully compatible, supports filesystems without journal
+          or extents, and also supports larger time stamps if the filesystem
+          is created with at least 256 byte inodes.
+
+	  This code is kept as a simple reference for filesystem developers.
+
+	  If unsure, say N.
+
+config EXT2_FS_XATTR
+	bool "Ext2 extended attributes"
+	depends on EXT2_FS
+	help
+	  Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated with inodes by
+	  the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page for details).
+
+	  If unsure, say N.
+
+config EXT2_FS_POSIX_ACL
+	bool "Ext2 POSIX Access Control Lists"
+	depends on EXT2_FS_XATTR
+	select FS_POSIX_ACL
+	help
+	  Posix Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and
+	  groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme.
+
+	  If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N
+
+config EXT2_FS_SECURITY
+	bool "Ext2 Security Labels"
+	depends on EXT2_FS_XATTR
+	help
+	  Security labels support alternative access control models
+	  implemented by security modules like SELinux.  This option
+	  enables an extended attribute handler for file security
+	  labels in the ext2 filesystem.
+
+	  If you are not using a security module that requires using
+	  extended attributes for file security labels, say N.
