[PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/2] straggling consolidation cleanups for v5.2

[Paul E. McKenney]

Hello!

This series contains a few straggling RCU consolidation updates:

1.	Update kprobes's documentation of obsolete RCU update functions.

2.	Update netfilter comment from call_rcu_bh() to call_rcu()

							Thanx, Paul

[PATCH tip/core/rcu 1/2] doc/kprobes: Update obsolete RCU update functions

[Paul E. McKenney]

The RCU flavors have been consolidated, so this commit replaces mentions
of the now-obsolete synchronize_sched() function with synchronize_rcu().
