Oleg Nesterov 6f4cec22c3 rcu: Eliminate lockless accesses to rcu_sync->gp_count
The rcu_sync structure's ->gp_count field is always accessed under the
protection of that same structure's ->rss_lock field, with the exception
of a pair of WARN_ON_ONCE() calls just prior to acquiring that lock in
functions rcu_sync_exit() and rcu_sync_dtor().  These lockless accesses
are unnecessary and impair KCSAN's ability to catch bugs that might be
inserted via other lockless accesses.

This commit therefore moves those WARN_ON_ONCE() calls under the lock.

* rcu_sync_exit(), so that it is invoked after a grace period following the
* that invocation of enter/exit.
*
* If it is called by rcu_sync_enter() it signals that all the readers were
* switched onto slow path.
*
* If it is called by rcu_sync_exit() it takes action based on events that
* have taken place in the meantime, so that closely spaced rcu_sync_enter()
* and rcu_sync_exit() pairs need not wait for a grace period.
*
* If another rcu_sync_enter() is invoked before the grace period
* ended, reset state to allow the next rcu_sync_exit() to let the
* readers back onto their fastpaths (after a grace period). If both
* another rcu_sync_enter() and its matching rcu_sync_exit() are invoked
* before the grace period ended, re-invoke call_rcu() on behalf of that
* rcu_sync_exit(). Otherwise, set all state back to idle so that readers
* can again use their fastpaths.
