Paul E. McKenney 165d6c78ee [PATCH] RCU documentation: self-limiting updates and call_rcu() ...

An update to the RCU documentation calling out the
self-limiting-update-rate advantages of synchronize_rcu(), and describing
how to use call_rcu() in a way that results in self-limiting updates.
Self-limiting updates are important to avoiding RCU-induced OOM in face of
denial-of-service attacks.
