Merge tag 'tasklets-v5.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux

Pull tasklets API update from Kees Cook:
 "These are the infrastructure updates needed to support converting the
  tasklet API to something more modern (and hopefully for removal
  further down the road).

  There is a 300-patch series waiting in the wings to get set out to
  subsystem maintainers, but these changes need to be present in the
  kernel first. Since this has some treewide changes, I carried this
  series for -next instead of paining Thomas with it in -tip, but it's
  got his Ack.

  This is similar to the timer_struct modernization from a while back,
  but not nearly as messy (I hope). :)

   - Prepare for tasklet API modernization (Romain Perier, Allen Pais,
     Kees Cook)"
