rcu: Implement per-domain single-threaded call_srcu() state machine

This commit implements an SRCU state machine in support of call_srcu().
The state machine is preemptible, light-weight, and single-threaded,
minimizing synchronization overhead.  In particular, there is no longer
any need for synchronize_srcu() to be guarded by a mutex.

Expedited processing is handled, at least in the absence of concurrent
grace-period operations on that same srcu_struct structure, by having
the synchronize_srcu_expedited() thread take on the role of the
workqueue thread for one iteration.

There is a reasonable probability that a given SRCU callback will
be invoked on the same CPU that registered it, however, there is no
guarantee.  Concurrent SRCU grace-period primitives can cause callbacks
to be executed elsewhere, even in absence of CPU-hotplug operations.

Callbacks execute in process context, but under the influence of
local_bh_disable(), so it is illegal to sleep in an SRCU callback
function.

* read-side critical sections have completed. However, the callback
* function might well execute concurrently with other SRCU read-side

* The callback will be invoked from process context, but must nevertheless
* be fast and must not block.
