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.

+	  KernelMemorySanitizer (KMSAN) is a dynamic detector of uses of
+	  uninitialized values in the kernel. It is based on compiler
+	  instrumentation provided by Clang and thus requires Clang to build.
+
+	  An important note is that KMSAN is not intended for production use,
+	  because it drastically increases kernel memory footprint and slows
+	  the whole system down.
+
+	  See <file:Documentation/dev-tools/kmsan.rst> for more details.

+	help
+	  If the compiler supports -fsanitize-memory-param-retval, KMSAN will
+	  eagerly check every function parameter passed by value and every
+	  function return value.
+
+	  Disabling KMSAN_CHECK_PARAM_RETVAL will result in tracking shadow for
+	  function parameters and return values across function borders. This
+	  is a more relaxed mode, but it generates more instrumentation code and
+	  may potentially report errors in corner cases when non-instrumented
+	  functions call instrumented ones.
