Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/2] Documenmtation update for 4.10
Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2016 08:46:49 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161114164649.GA15056@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Hello!

This series provides a couple of documentation updates:

1.	Provide an updated description of RCU's grace-period guarantee
	based on recent memory-model work.  This does not change the
	way that RCU behaves, but rather presents a more accurate view
	of how it works.  The difference is subtle, so most people won't
	need to care.

2.	Fix a "deference" -> "dereference" typo, courtesy of Pranith
	Kumar.

							Thanx, Paul
