<title>srcu: Provide polling interfaces for Tiny SRCU grace periods</title>

<content type='text'>
There is a need for a polling interface for SRCU grace
periods, so this commit supplies get_state_synchronize_srcu(),
start_poll_synchronize_srcu(), and poll_state_synchronize_srcu() for this
purpose.  The first can be used if future grace periods are inevitable
(perhaps due to a later call_srcu() invocation), the second if future
grace periods might not otherwise happen, and the third to check if a
grace period has elapsed since the corresponding call to either of the
first two.

As with get_state_synchronize_rcu() and cond_synchronize_rcu(),
the return value from either get_state_synchronize_srcu() or
start_poll_synchronize_srcu() must be passed in to a later call to
poll_state_synchronize_srcu().

<title>srcu: Make Tiny SRCU use multi-bit grace-period counter</title>

<content type='text'>
There is a need for a polling interface for SRCU grace periods.  This
polling needs to distinguish between an SRCU instance being idle on the
one hand or in the middle of a grace period on the other.  This commit
therefore converts the Tiny SRCU srcu_struct structure's srcu_idx from
a defacto boolean to a free-running counter, using the bottom bit to
indicate that a grace period is in progress.  The second-from-bottom
bit is thus used as the index returned by srcu_read_lock().

<title>srcu: Use "ssp" instead of "sp" for srcu_struct pointer</title>

In RCU, the distinction between "rsp", "rnp", and "rdp" has served well
for a great many years, but in SRCU, "sp" vs. "sdp" has proven confusing.
This commit therefore renames SRCU's "sp" pointers to "ssp", so that there
is "ssp" for srcu_struct pointer, "snp" for srcu_node pointer, and "sdp"
for srcu_data pointer.

There are macros for static initializer for the three out of four
possible notifier types, that are:
	ATOMIC_NOTIFIER_HEAD()
	BLOCKING_NOTIFIER_HEAD()
	RAW_NOTIFIER_HEAD()

This patch provides a static initilizer for the forth type to make it
complete.

The rcu_segcblist structure provides quite a bit of functionality, and
Tiny SRCU needs almost none of it.  So this commit replaces Tiny SRCU's
uses of rcu_segcblist with a simple singly linked list with tail pointer.
This change significantly reduces Tiny SRCU's memory footprint, more
than making up for the growth caused by the creation of rcu_segcblist.c

The call_srcu() docbook entry is currently in include/linux/srcu.h,
which causes needless processing for each include point.  This commit
therefore moves this entry to kernel/rcu/srcutree.c, which the compiler
reads only once.  In addition, the srcu_batches_completed() function is
used only within RCU and its torture-test suites.  This commit therefore
also moves this function's declaration from include/linux/srcutiny.h,
include/linux/srcutree.h, and include/linux/srcuclassic.h to
kernel/rcu/rcu.h.

The include/linux/rcupdate.h file contains a number of definitions that
are used only to communicate between rcutorture, rcuperf, and the RCU code
itself.  There is no point in having these definitions exposed globally
throughout the kernel, so this commit moves them to kernel/rcu/rcu.h.
This change has the added benefit of shrinking rcupdate.h.
