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.

+ * Get bpf_prog_info in continuous memory
+ *
+ * struct bpf_prog_info has multiple arrays. The user has option to choose
+ * arrays to fetch from kernel. The following APIs provide an uniform way to
+ * fetch these data. All arrays in bpf_prog_info are stored in a single
+ * continuous memory region. This makes it easy to store the info in a
+ * file.
+ *
+ * Before writing perf_bpil to files, it is necessary to
+ * translate pointers in bpf_prog_info to offsets. Helper functions
+ * bpil_addr_to_offs() and bpil_offs_to_addr()
+ * are introduced to switch between pointers and offsets.
+ *
+ * Examples:
+ *   # To fetch map_ids and prog_tags:
+ *   __u64 arrays = (1UL << PERF_BPIL_MAP_IDS) |
+ *           (1UL << PERF_BPIL_PROG_TAGS);
+ *   struct perf_bpil *info_linear =
+ *           get_bpf_prog_info_linear(fd, arrays);
+ *
+ *   # To save data in file
+ *   bpil_addr_to_offs(info_linear);
+ *   write(f, info_linear, sizeof(*info_linear) + info_linear->data_len);
+ *
+ *   # To read data from file
+ *   read(f, info_linear, <proper_size>);
+ *   bpil_offs_to_addr(info_linear);
