The TREE_SRCU rewrite is large and a bit on the non-simple side, so
this commit helps reduce risk by allowing the old v4.11 SRCU algorithm
to be selected using a new CLASSIC_SRCU Kconfig option that depends
on RCU_EXPERT.  The default is to use the new TREE_SRCU and TINY_SRCU
algorithms, in order to help get these the testing that they need.
However, if your users do not require the update-side scalability that
is to be provided by TREE_SRCU, select RCU_EXPERT and then CLASSIC_SRCU
to revert back to the old classic SRCU algorithm.

SRCU's implementation of expedited grace periods has always assumed
that the SRCU instance is idle when the expedited request arrives.
This commit improves this a bit by maintaining a count of the number
of outstanding expedited requests, thus allowing prior non-expedited
grace periods accommodate these requests by shifting to expedited mode.
However, any non-expedited wait already in progress will still wait for
the full duration.

Improved control of expedited grace periods is planned, but one step
at a time.

Updating ->srcu_state and ->srcu_gp_seq will lead to extremely complex
race conditions given multiple callback queues, so this commit takes
advantage of the two-bit state now available in rcu_seq counters to
store the state in the bottom two bits of ->srcu_gp_seq.

This commit moves the rcu_init_levelspread() function from
kernel/rcu/tree.c to kernel/rcu/rcu.h so that SRCU can access it.  This is
another step towards enabling SRCU to create its own combining tree.
This commit is code-movement only, give or take knock-on adjustments.

This commit switches SRCU from custom-built callback queues to the new
rcu_segcblist structure.  This change associates grace-period sequence
numbers with groups of callbacks, which will be needed for efficient
processing of per-CPU callbacks.

This commit adds grace-period sequence numbers, which will be used to
handle mid-boot grace periods and per-CPU callback lists.

The current SRCU grace-period processing might never reach the last
portion of srcu_advance_batches().  This is OK given the current
implementation, as the first portion, up to the try_check_zero()
following the srcu_flip() is sufficient to drive grace periods forward.
However, it has the unfortunate side-effect of making it impossible to
determine when a given grace period has ended, and it will be necessary
to efficiently trace ends of grace periods in order to efficiently handle
per-CPU SRCU callback lists.

This commit therefore adds states to the SRCU grace-period processing,
so that the end of a given SRCU grace period is marked by the transition
to the SRCU_STATE_DONE state.

This commit simplifies the SRCU state machine by pushing the
srcu_advance_batches() idle-SRCU fastpath into the common case.  This is
done by giving srcu_reschedule() a delay parameter, which is zero in
the call from srcu_advance_batches().

This commit is a step towards numbering callbacks in order to
efficiently handle per-CPU callback lists.

This commit checks for pre-scheduler state, and if that early in the
boot process, synchronize_srcu() and friends are no-ops.
