%pF and %pf are functionally equivalent to %pS and %ps conversion
specifiers. The former are deprecated, therefore switch the current users
to use the preferred variant.

The changes have been produced by the following command:

	git grep -l '%p[fF]' | grep -v '^\(tools\|Documentation\)/' | \
	while read i; do perl -i -pe 's/%pf/%ps/g; s/%pF/%pS/g;' $i; done

And verifying the result.

<content type='text'>
When CONFIG_RCU_TRACE is not set, all these tracepoints are defined as
do-nothing macro.
We'd better make those inline functions that take proper arguments.

As RCU_TRACE() is defined as do-nothing marco as well when
CONFIG_RCU_TRACE is not set, so we can clean it up.

<content type='text'>
This commit further consolidates stall-warning functionality by moving
forward-progress checkers into kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h, updating a
comment or two while in the area.  More specifically, this commit moves
show_rcu_gp_kthreads(), rcu_check_gp_start_stall(), rcu_fwd_progress_check(),
sysrq_rcu, sysrq_show_rcu(), sysrq_rcudump_op, and rcu_sysrq_init() from
kernel/rcu/tree.c to kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h.

<content type='text'>
The rcu_iw_handler() function's sole purpose in life is to indicate
whether a stalled CPU had interrupts disabled, so it belongs in
kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h.  This commit therefore makes that move,
clarifying its header comment while in the area.

code from kernel/rcu/tree.c to kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h.

<title>rcu: Move RCU CPU stall-warning code out of update.c</title>

<id>urn:sha1:10462d6f58fb6dbde7563e9343505d98d5bfba3d</id>
<content type='text'>
The RCU CPU stall-warning code for normal grace periods is currently
scattered across three files, due to earlier Tiny RCU support for RCU
CPU stall warnings and for old Kconfig options that have long since
been retired.  Given that it is hard for the lead RCU maintainer to
find relevant stall-warning code, it would be good to consolidate it.
This commit starts this process by moving stall-warning code from
kernel/rcu/update.c to a new kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h file.

Note that the definitions of rcu_cpu_stall_suppress and
rcu_cpu_stall_timeout must remain in kernel/rcu/update.h to provide
compatibility for kernel boot parameter lists.

<title>rcu: Fix force_qs_rnp() header comment</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5d8a752e31aaa4c9703f201956a40b45ed791217</id>
<content type='text'>
Previously, threads blocked on offlining CPUS were migrated to the
root rcu_node structure, thus requiring RCU priority boosting on this
structure.  However, since commit d19fb8d1f3f6 ("rcu: Don't migrate
blocked tasks even if all corresponding CPUs offline"), RCU does not
migrate blocked tasks.  Consequently, RCU no longer does RCU priority
boosting on the root rcu_node structure as of commit 1be0085b515e ("rcu:
Don't initiate RCU priority boosting on root rcu_node").

This commit therefore brings comments for the force_qs_rnp() function's
header comment in line with this new no-root-boosting reality.
