Hello!

This series moves from the two-variable ->gpnum and ->completed to
a single-variable ->gp_seq approach.  The key point is that ->gpnum
and ->completed are either identical or ->gpnum is only one greater,
which means that we are using a full unsigned long were a single bit
would do.  This series therefore applies the pre-existing grace-period
sequence-number code used by expedited grace periods, _rcu_barrier(),
and SRCU.  This change also has the beneficial effect of allowing the
grace-period state to be sampled with a single load, which will be used
to improve the grace-period start code.  The individual commits are
as follows:

1.	Introduce grace-period sequence numbers (->gp_seq) to normal RCU.

2-17.	Make core RCU code use ->gp_seq instead of ->gpnum and ->completed.

18.	Move from ->need_future_gp[] to ->gp_seq_needed, which allows
	simpler grace-period-already-requested checks.

19.	Use the new ->gp_seq_needed to make rcu_nocb_wait_gp() check if
	a given grace has already been requested, thus reducing overhead
	for no-CBs CPUs.

20-26.	Move RCU tracepoints to ->gp_seq.

27.	Remove ->gpnum and ->completed.

28.	Make simple callback acceleration refer to rdp->gp_seq_needed.

29-31.	Update documentation to reflect ->gp_seq.

32.	Don't funnel-lock above the leaf rcu_node structure if a grace period
	is in progress, thus saving an upper-level rcu_node ->lock
	acquisition.

33.	Produce the last CleanupMore trace only if the corresponding
	grace-period request was quite recent, courtesy of Joel Fernandes.

34.	Fix cpustart tracepoint ->gp_seq number, courtesy of Joel Fernandes.

35.	Make rcu_start_this_gp() check for grace period already started.

36.	Correctly handle grace-period sequence (->gp_seq) wrap in
	rcutorture.

37.	Regularize resetting of rcu_data wrap indicator.

38-39.	Rename grace-period-request variables and parameters, courtesy
	of Joel Fernandes.

40.	Check current node rather than leaf node for requested grace
	period already being in progress.

							Thanx, Paul
