Lazy or not, your approach is much better than what I was doing. ;-)

Two patches in subsequent emails: the first gets rid of a duplicate
RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR config declaration (noticed in this exercise --
one each from the CLASSIC_RCU and TREE_RCU stall detectors), and the
second changes the default to TREE_RCU as you suggest.

Thanx, Paul
