Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] rcu: Cleanup the variables used to request a new grace period
Date:   Sun, 20 May 2018 21:32:50 -0700
Message-Id: <20180521043251.120953-4-joel@joelfernandes.org>
In-Reply-To: <20180521043251.120953-1-joel@joelfernandes.org>
References: <20180521043251.120953-1-joel@joelfernandes.org>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

The 'c' variable was used previously to store the grace period that is
being requested. However it is not very meaningful since the gp_seq
conversions. This patch replaces it with gp_seq_req indicating that
this is the grace period that was requested. Also updating tracing with
the new name.

Previous patch discussion is at:
