6 * This litmus test demonstrates that after a grace period, an RCU updater always
7 * sees all stores done in prior RCU read-side critical sections. Such
8 * read-side critical sections would have ended before the grace period ended.
9 *
10 * This is one implication of the RCU grace-period guarantee, which says (among
11 * other things) that an RCU read-side critical section cannot span a grace period.
