[GIT PULL] RCU fix

[Ingo Molnar]

Linus,

Please pull the latest core-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git core-urgent-for-linus

   HEAD: 745040347d7e8e7b47e3790de76423d9eab474eb Merge branch 'rcu/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/urgent

Fix leaking RCU extended quiescent state, which might trigger 
warnings and mess up the extended quiescent state tracking logic 
into thinking that we are in "RCU user mode" while we aren't.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
