Merge commit '8700c95adb' into timers/nohz

The full dynticks tree needs the latest RCU and sched
upstream updates in order to fix some dependencies.

Merge a common upstream merge point that has these
updates.

alloc_snapshot [FTRACE]
Allocate the ftrace snapshot buffer on boot up when the
main buffer is allocated. This is handy if debugging
and you need to use tracing_snapshot() on boot up, and
do not want to use tracing_snapshot_alloc() as it needs
to be done where GFP_KERNEL allocations are allowed.

workqueue.disable_numa
By default, all work items queued to unbound
workqueues are affine to the NUMA nodes they're
issued on, which results in better behavior in
general. If NUMA affinity needs to be disabled for
whatever reason, this option can be used. Note
that this also can be controlled per-workqueue for
