Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:
 "Documentation updates

  Miscellaneous fixes, perhaps most notably:

   - Remove RCU_NONIDLE(). The new visibility of most of the idle loop
     to RCU has obsoleted this API.

   - Make the RCU_SOFTIRQ callback-invocation time limit also apply to
     the rcuc kthreads that invoke callbacks for CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT.

   - Add a jiffies-based callback-invocation time limit to handle
     long-running callbacks. (The local_clock() function is only invoked
     once per 32 callbacks due to its high overhead.)

   - Stop rcu_tasks_invoke_cbs() from using never-onlined CPUs, which
     fixes a bug that can occur on systems with non-contiguous CPU
     numbering.

  kvfree_rcu updates:

   - Eliminate the single-argument variant of k[v]free_rcu() now that
     all uses have been converted to k[v]free_rcu_mightsleep().

   - Add WARN_ON_ONCE() checks for k[v]free_rcu*() freeing callbacks too
     soon. Yes, this is closing the barn door after the horse has
     escaped, but Murphy says that there will be more horses.

  Callback-offloading updates:

   - Fix a number of bugs involving the shrinker and lazy callbacks.
