Merge tag 'rcu.2023.08.21a' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

 - Documentation updates

 - Miscellaneous fixes, perhaps most notably simplifying
   SRCU_NOTIFIER_INIT() as suggested

 - RCU Tasks updates, most notably treating Tasks RCU callbacks as lazy
   while still treating synchronous grace periods as urgent. Also fixes
   one bug that restores the ability to apply debug-objects to RCU Tasks
   and another that fixes a race condition that could result in
   false-positive failures of the boot-time self-test code

 - RCU-scalability performance-test updates, most notably adding the
   ability to measure the RCU-Tasks's grace-period kthread's CPU
   consumption. This proved quite useful for the RCU Tasks work

 - Reference-acquisition/release performance-test updates, including a
   fix for an uninitialized wait_queue_head_t

 - Miscellaneous torture-test updates

 - Torture-test scripting updates, including removal of the
   non-longer-functional formal-verification scripts, test builds of
   individual RCU Tasks flavors, better diagnostics for loss of
   connectivity for distributed rcutorture tests, disabling of reboot
   loops in qemu/KVM-based rcutorture testing, and passing of init
   parameters to rcutorture's init program
