Paul Gortmaker 5cb5c6e18f rcu: Ensure kernel/rcu/rcu.h can be sourced/used stand-alone
The kbuild test bot uncovered an implicit dependence on the
trace header being present before rcu.h in ia64 allmodconfig
that looks like this:

In file included from kernel/ksysfs.c:22:0:
kernel/rcu/rcu.h: In function '__rcu_reclaim':
kernel/rcu/rcu.h:107:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'trace_rcu_invoke_kfree_callback' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
kernel/rcu/rcu.h:112:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'trace_rcu_invoke_callback' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors

Looking at other rcu.h users, we can find that they all
were sourcing the trace header in advance of rcu.h itself,
as seen in the context of this diff.  There were also some
inconsistencies as to whether it was or wasn't sourced based
on the parent tracing Kconfig.

Rather than "fix" it at each use site, and have inconsistent
use based on whether "#ifdef CONFIG_RCU_TRACE" was used or not,
lets just source the trace header just once, in the actual consumer
of it, which is rcu.h itself.  We include it unconditionally, as
build testing shows us that is a hard requirement for some files.

Paul E. McKenney 87de1cfdc5 rcu: Stop tracking FSF's postal address
All of the RCU source files have the usual GPL header, which contains a
long-obsolete postal address for FSF.  To avoid the need to track the
FSF office's movements, this commit substitutes the URL where GPL may
be found.

Oleg Nesterov a8d4b8345e introduce __fcheck_files() to fix rcu_dereference_check_fdtable(), kill rcu_my_thread_group_empty()
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() looks very wrong,

1. rcu_my_thread_group_empty() was added by 844b9a8707 "vfs: fix
   RCU-lockdep false positive due to /proc" but it doesn't really
   fix the problem. A CLONE_THREAD (without CLONE_FILES) task can
   hit the same race with get_files_struct().

   And otoh rcu_my_thread_group_empty() can suppress the correct
   warning if the caller is the CLONE_FILES (without CLONE_THREAD)
   task.

2. files->count == 1 check is not really right too. Even if this
   files_struct is not shared it is not safe to access it lockless
   unless the caller is the owner.

   Otoh, this check is sub-optimal. files->count == 0 always means
   it is safe to use it lockless even if files != current->files,
   but put_files_struct() has to take rcu_read_lock(). See the next
   patch.

This patch removes the buggy checks and turns fcheck_files() into
__fcheck_files() which uses rcu_dereference_raw(), the "unshared"
callers, fget_light() and fget_raw_light(), can use it to avoid
the warning from RCU-lockdep.

fcheck_files() is trivially reimplemented as rcu_lockdep_assert()
plus __fcheck_files().

Paul E. McKenney 24ef659a85 rcu: Provide better diagnostics for blocking in RCU callback functions
Currently blocking in an RCU callback function will result in
"scheduling while atomic", which could be triggered for any number
of reasons.  To aid debugging, this patch introduces a rcu_callback_map
that is used to tie the inappropriate voluntary context switch back
to the fact that the function is being invoked from within a callback.
