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 SECURITY_SMACK

+	depends on SECURITY
+	select NETLABEL
+	select SECURITY_NETWORK
+	default n
+	help
+	  This selects the Simplified Mandatory Access Control Kernel.
+	  Smack is useful for sensitivity, integrity, and a variety
+	  of other mandatory security schemes.
+	  If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.

+config SECURITY_SMACK_BRINGUP
+	bool "Reporting on access granted by Smack rules"
+	depends on SECURITY_SMACK
+	default n
+	help
+	  Enable the bring-up ("b") access mode in Smack rules.
+	  When access is granted by a rule with the "b" mode a
+	  message about the access requested is generated. The
+	  intention is that a process can be granted a wide set
+	  of access initially with the bringup mode set on the
+	  rules. The developer can use the information to
+	  identify which rules are necessary and what accesses
+	  may be inappropriate. The developer can reduce the
+	  access rule set once the behavior is well understood.
+	  This is a superior mechanism to the oft abused
+	  "permissive" mode of other systems.
+	  If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.

+config SECURITY_SMACK_NETFILTER
+	bool "Packet marking using secmarks for netfilter"
+	depends on SECURITY_SMACK
+	depends on NETWORK_SECMARK
+	depends on NETFILTER
+	default n

+	  This enables security marking of network packets using
+	  Smack labels.

+config SECURITY_SMACK_APPEND_SIGNALS
+	bool "Treat delivering signals as an append operation"
+	depends on SECURITY_SMACK
+	default n
+	help
+	  Sending a signal has been treated as a write operation to the
+	  receiving process. If this option is selected, the delivery
+	  will be an append operation instead. This makes it possible
+	  to differentiate between delivering a network packet and
+	  delivering a signal in the Smack rules.
+	  If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
