Combining yours and Josh's feedback, I will split the documentation
updates out of 4ca0508f7870 ("rcu: Remove rsp parameter from rcu_node tree
accessor macros") and put them into the "doc" series. Possibly combining
it with 2ea66b6fce61 ("doc: Update documentation for removal of RCU-bh
update machinery") and/or 3f38a4626202 ("doc: Update documentation for
removal of RCU-sched update machinery"). Left to myself, I would merge
it in to the merger of those two documentation commits. Having them
together is probably more convenient anyway, as it would provide a
summary of the entire RCU-flavor-consolidation change.
Fair enough?
