Subject: rcu: Eliminate unused APIs intended for adaptive ticks
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=feed66ed26a53e700ca02ce1744fed7d0c647292;p=linux-beck.git

rcu: Eliminate unused APIs intended for adaptive ticks

The rcu_user_enter_after_irq() and rcu_user_exit_after_irq()
functions were intended for use by adaptive ticks, but changes
in implementation have rendered them unnecessary.  This commit
therefore removes them.
