Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

 - Documentation updates

 - Miscellaneous fixes

 - Callback-offload updates, perhaps most notably a new
   RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL Kconfig option that causes all CPUs to be
   offloaded at boot time, regardless of kernel boot parameters.

   This is useful to battery-powered systems such as ChromeOS and
   Android. In addition, a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST kernel boot
   parameter prevents offloaded callbacks from interfering with
   real-time workloads and with energy-efficiency mechanisms

 - Polled grace-period updates, perhaps most notably making these APIs
   account for both normal and expedited grace periods

 - Tasks RCU updates, perhaps most notably reducing the CPU overhead of
   RCU tasks trace grace periods by more than a factor of two on a
   system with 15,000 tasks.

   The reduction is expected to increase with the number of tasks, so it
   seems reasonable to hypothesize that a system with 150,000 tasks
   might see a 20-fold reduction in CPU overhead

 - Torture-test updates

 - Updates that merge RCU's dyntick-idle tracking into context tracking,
   thus reducing the overhead of transitioning to kernel mode from
   either idle or nohz_full userspace execution for kernels that track
   context independently of RCU.

   This is expected to be helpful primarily for kernels built with
   CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y

<title>locking/rwsem: Allow slowpath writer to ignore handoff bit if not set by first waiter</title>

<id>6eebd5fb20838f5971ba17df9f55cc4f84a31053</id>
<content type='text'>
With commit d257cc8cb8d5 ("locking/rwsem: Make handoff bit handling more
consistent"), the writer that sets the handoff bit can be interrupted
out without clearing the bit if the wait queue isn't empty. This disables
reader and writer optimistic lock spinning and stealing.

Now if a non-first writer in the queue is somehow woken up or a new
waiter enters the slowpath, it can't acquire the lock.  This is not the
case before commit d257cc8cb8d5 as the writer that set the handoff bit
will clear it when exiting out via the out_nolock path. This is less
efficient as the busy rwsem stays in an unlock state for a longer time.

In some cases, this new behavior may cause lockups as shown in [1] and
[2].

This patch allows a non-first writer to ignore the handoff bit if it
is not originally set or initiated by the first waiter. This patch is
shown to be effective in fixing the lockup problem reported in [1].

The RCU dynticks counter is going to be merged into the context tracking
subsystem. Start with moving the idle extended quiescent states
entrypoints to context tracking. For now those are dumb redirections to
existing RCU calls.

Commit dfd5e3f5fe27 ("locking/lockdep: Mark local_lock_t") added yet
another lockdep_init_map_*() variant, but forgot to update all the
existing users of the most complicated version.

This could lead to a loss of lock_type and hence an incorrect report.
Given the relative rarity of both local_lock and these annotations,
this is unlikely to happen in practise, still, best fix things.

Since the rewrote of prandom_u32(), in the commit mentioned below, the
function uses sleeping locks which extracing random numbers and filling
the batch.
This breaks lockdep on PREEMPT_RT because lock_pin_lock() disables
interrupts while calling __lock_pin_lock(). This can't be moved earlier
because the main user of the function (rq_pin_lock()) invokes that
function after disabling interrupts in order to acquire the lock.

The cookie does not require random numbers as its goal is to provide a
random value in order to notice unexpected "unlock + lock" sites.

Use sched_clock() to provide random numbers.

Queued rwlock was originally named "queue rwlock" which wasn't quite
grammatically correct. However there are still some "queue rwlock"
references in the code. Change those to "queued rwlock" for consistency.

kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.

To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong.  The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.

All filesystem syctls now get reviewed by fs folks. This commit
follows the commit of fs, move the prove_locking and lock_stat sysctls
to its own file, kernel/lockdep.c.

<title>locking/mutex: Make contention tracepoints more consistent wrt adaptive spinning</title>

Have the trace_contention_*() tracepoints consistently include
adaptive spinning. In order to differentiate between the spinning and
non-spinning states add LCB_F_MUTEX and combine with LCB_F_SPIN.

The consequence is that a mutex contention can now triggler multiple
_begin() tracepoints before triggering an _end().

Additionally, this fixes one path where mutex would trigger _end()
without ever seeing a _begin().
