liburcu is a LGPLv2.1 userspace RCU (read-copy-update) library. This
data synchronization library provides read-side access which scales
linearly with the number of cores. It does so by allowing multiples
copies of a given data structure to live at the same time, and by
monitoring the data structure accesses to detect grace periods after
which memory reclamation is possible.

Changelog:
        * uatomic: Fix ARM build errors in uatomic.
        * urcu tests: hold mutex across use of custom allocator.
        * Portability fixes to support FreeBSD 8.2.
