[PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/4] v2 Documentation and rcutorture changes for3.9

[Paul E. McKenney]

Hello!

The following are changes to documentation and rcutorture:

1.	Export trace_clock_local() in order to allow rcutorture event
	tracing to emit the time of the beginning of the RCU read-side
	critical section at the point where a failure is detected.
2.	Reduce rcutorture's read-side tracing to include only failures,
	thus cutting the number of events down to something reasonable
	(normally zero, in fact!).
3.	Add atomic_xchg() to the list of atomic operations and memory
	barriers, courtesy of Richard Braun.
4.	Make rcutorture's shuffler task also shuffle recently added
	rcutorture kthreads.

Changes since v1:

o	Fixed build problem in #2 located by Randy Dunlap based on
	diagnosis from Steven Rostedt.

o	Added patch #4.

							Thanx, Paul
