It really matters how much of a burden is RCU_tasks to RCU itself? If
it causes a lot of headache for you, and it prevents you from cleaning
up RCU or making it better, then I would be happy to take it out of RCU
and maintain it separately myself. But if that's not the case, I'm happy
with keeping it within the RCU umbrella. Which brings me to the
question of what motivation does Joel have to remove it?
