Hello,

I have two questions. Could you answer them?

1. What do you think about this patch?
2. Is there a tree where patches about rcu are pulled into, before
being pulled into mainline tree?
For example, tip tree in case of scheduler patches.

It would be appriciated if you answer them.

Thank you in advance,
Byungchul
