Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Main RCU changes this cycle were:

   - Full-system idle detection.  This is for use by Frederic
     Weisbecker's adaptive-ticks mechanism.  Its purpose is to allow the
     timekeeping CPU to shut off its tick when all other CPUs are idle.

   - Miscellaneous fixes.

   - Improved rcutorture test coverage.

   - Updated RCU documentation"
