Merge tag 'oprofile-removal-5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vireshk/linux
Pull oprofile and dcookies removal from Viresh Kumar: "Remove oprofile and dcookies support The 'oprofile' user-space tools don't use the kernel OPROFILE support any more, and haven't in a long time. User-space has been converted to the perf interfaces. The dcookies stuff is only used by the oprofile code. Now that oprofile's support is getting removed from the kernel, there is no need for dcookies as well. Remove kernel's old oprofile and dcookies support" * tag 'oprofile-removal-5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vireshk/linux: fs: Remove dcookies support drivers: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: xtensa: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: x86: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: sparc: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: sh: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: s390: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: powerpc: Remove oprofile arch: powerpc: Stop building and using oprofile arch: parisc: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: mips: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: microblaze: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: ia64: Remove rest of perfmon support arch: ia64: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: hexagon: Don't select HAVE_OPROFILE arch: arc: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: arm: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support arch: alpha: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support

@@ -8,8 +8,7 @@ Although RCU is usually used to protect read-mostly data structures,
it is possible to use RCU to provide dynamic non-maskable interrupt
handlers, as well as dynamic irq handlers. This document describes
how to do this, drawing loosely from Zwane Mwaikambo's NMI-timer
