1. Design documentation illustrating RCU's grace-period memory
ordering guarantees.

2. Add verbiage stating that long-running irq handlers can stall
RCU grace periods.

3. Add verbiage stating that slow systems can stall RCU grace periods.

4. Update description of RCU CPU stall warning messages.

5. Replace uses of "transitive" in memory-barriers.txt.

6. Rework multicopy-atomicity section of memory-barriers.txt,
courtesy of Alan Stern.

7. Fix RCU's docbook options.

8. Add parameters to rcupdate.h docbook comments.

9. Remove extra docbook comment in rculist.h.

10. Fix docbook comments for rcu_sync functions.

11. Fix list and emphasis in rcupdate.h docbook comments.

12. Flag code segment in rcu_pointer_handoff()'s docbook comment.

13. Fix code display in rcu_pointer_handoff()'s docbook comment.

14. Fix tree.c bulleted lists in docbook comments.

15. Fix typo in pairing example in memory-barriers.txt, courtesy
of Scott Tsai.

16. Rewrite confusing statement about memory barriers in

Thanx, Paul
