Merge tag 'rcu.2024.07.12a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

 - Update Tasks RCU and Tasks Rude RCU description in Requirements.rst
   and clarify rcu_assign_pointer() and rcu_dereference() ordering
   properties

 - Add lockdep assertions for RCU readers, limit inline wakeups for
   callback-bypass synchronize_rcu(), add an
   rcutree.nohz_full_patience_delay to reduce nohz_full OS jitter, add
   Uladzislau Rezki as RCU maintainer, and fix a subtle
   callback-migration memory-ordering issue

 - Remove a number of redundant memory barriers

 - Remove unnecessary bypass-list lock-contention mitigation, use
   parking API instead of open-coded ad-hoc equivalent, and upgrade
   obsolete comments

 - Revert avoidance of a deadlock that can no longer occur and properly
   synchronize Tasks Trace RCU checking of runqueues

 - Add tests for handling of double-call_rcu() bug, add missing
   MODULE_DESCRIPTION, and add a script that histograms the number of
   calls to RCU updaters

 - Fill out SRCU polled-grace-period API
