Hi Paul,
After merging the rcu tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig)
failed like this:
arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c: In function 'vmx_init':
arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c:11026:2: error: function '_r_a_p__v' is initialized like a variable

Caused by commit
16d7afcaa530 ("rcu: No ordering for rcu_assign_pointer() of NULL")
I have reverted that commit for today.
