But in initial tests TREE04.5, TREE04.6, and TREE04.9 all hit the
WARN_ON(1) in rcu_torture_barrier(), which indicates rcu_barrier()
breakage. My best (but not so good) guess is a five-hour MTBF on a
dual-socket system.

I started an automated "git bisect" with each step running 100 hours
of TREE04, but I would be surprised if anything useful comes of it.
Pleased, mind you, but surprised.

Thanx, Paul
