Paul E. McKenney committed 1ebee8017d8
rcu: Eliminate array-index-based RCU primitives Now that rcu_access_index() and rcu_dereference_index_check() are no longer used, the commit removes them from the RCU API. This means that RCU's data dependencies now involve only pointers, give or take the occasional cast to and then back from an integer type to do pointer arithmetic. This in turn eliminates the need for a number of operations on values carrying RCU data dependencies. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
