In check_all_holdout_tasks_trace(), firstreport is a pointer argument;
so, check the dereferenced value, instead of checking the pointer.

Correct the check for no_hz_full cpu in show_stalled_task_trace(),
to include cpu 0.

call_rcu_tasks_trace() does have read-side primitives - rcu_read_lock_trace()
and rcu_read_unlock_trace(). Fix this information in the comments.

RCU tasks rude variant does not check whether the current
running context on a CPU is usermode. Read side critical section ends
on transition to usermode execution, by the virtue of usermode
execution being schedulable. Clarify this in comments for
call_rcu_tasks_rude() and synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude().

The above line should start "Tasks Trace read-side critical..." for
the benefit of people who stop reading before the next sentence.  :-/

I queued all but 4/5 for review and testing, thank you!!!

4/5 needs a slight fix that I cannot do in the patch itself.
