This commit adds a call_rcu() flooding loop to the forward-progress test.
This emulates tight userspace loops that force call_rcu() invocations,
for example, the infamous loop containing close(open()) that instigated
the addition of blimit. If RCU does not make sufficient forward progress
in invoking the resulting flood of callbacks, rcutorture emits a warning.

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.

The srcu_gp_start() function is called with the srcu_struct structure's
->lock held, but not with the srcu_data structure's ->lock. This is
problematic because this function accesses and updates the srcu_data
structure's ->srcu_cblist, which is protected by that lock. Failing to
hold this lock can result in corruption of the SRCU callback lists,
which in turn can result in arbitrarily bad results.
This commit therefore makes srcu_gp_start() acquire the srcu_data
structure's ->lock across the calls to rcu_segcblist_advance() and
rcu_segcblist_accelerate(), thus preventing this corruption.

Subtracting INT_MIN can be interpreted as unconditional signed integer
overflow, which according to the C standard is undefined behavior.
Therefore, kernel build arguments notwithstanding, it would be good to
future-proof the code. This commit therefore substitutes INT_MAX for
INT_MIN in order to avoid undefined behavior.
While in the neighborhood, this commit also creates some meaningful names

Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.ibm.com>
In PREEMPT kernels, an expedited grace period might send an IPI to a
CPU that is executing an RCU read-side critical section. In that case,
it would be nice if the rcu_read_unlock() directly interacted with the
RCU core code to immediately report the quiescent state. And this does
happen in the case where the reader has been preempted. But it would
also be a nice performance optimization if immediate reporting also
happened in the preemption-free case.
This commit therefore adds an ->exp_hint field to the task_struct structure's
->rcu_read_unlock_special field. The IPI handler sets this hint when
it has interrupted an RCU read-side critical section, and this causes
the outermost rcu_read_unlock() call to invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(),
which, if preemption is enabled, reports the quiescent state immediately.
If preemption is disabled, then the report is required to be deferred
until preemption (or bottom halves or interrupts or whatever) is re-enabled.
Because this is a hint, it does nothing for more complicated cases. For
example, if the IPI interrupts an RCU reader, but interrupts are disabled
across the rcu_read_unlock(), but another rcu_read_lock() is executed
before interrupts are re-enabled, the hint will already have been cleared.
If you do crazy things like this, reporting will be deferred until some
later RCU_SOFTIRQ handler, context switch, cond_resched(), or similar.

Currently, rcu_gp_cleanup() traces the end of the old grace period after
the old grace period has officially ended. This might make intuitive
sense, but it also makes for confusing event-trace output because the
"end" trace displays not the old but instead the new grace-period number.
This commit therefore traces the end of an old grace period just before
that grace period officially ends.
