rcu: Remove SPARSE_RCU_POINTER Kconfig option2017-06-09T01:52:41ZPaul E. McKenneypaulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com2017-05-12T22:56:35Zurn:sha1:41a2901e7d220875752a8c870e0b53288a578c20
The sparse-based checking for non-RCU accesses to RCU-protected pointers
has been around for a very long time, and it is now the only type of
sparse-based checking that is optional. This commit therefore makes
it unconditional.

Improve sparse documentation2017-02-15T22:09:13ZMatthew Wilcoxwilly@infradead.org2017-02-13T19:16:02Zurn:sha1:291b9d73681f3e0123b8954eb20be22342987afc
Add documentation of -DCONFIG_SPARSE_RCU_POINTER.
I started to add documentation of -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__ as well, but
discovered I'm too late; that's now enabled by default.

We dropped __CHECK_ENDIAN__ so __bitwise__ is now an implementation
detail. People should use __bitwise everywhere.

Fold the sparse document into the development tools set; no changes to the
text itself beyond formatting.
