Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

+ * rcu_read_lock - mark the beginning of an RCU read-side critical section.
+ *
+ * When synchronize_kernel() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
+ * are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the
+ * synchronize_kernel() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
+ * CPUs exit their critical sections. Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
+ * on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
+ * sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
+ * until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
+ *
+ * Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
+ * with RCU read-side critical sections. One way that this can happen
+ * is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
+ * read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
+ * an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
+ * (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
+ * callback is invoked. This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
+ * section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
+ * therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
+ * callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
+ * RCU callback is invoked.
+ *
+ * RCU read-side critical sections may be nested. Any deferred actions
+ * will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
+ * completes.
+ *
+ * It is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section.
