Paul E. McKenney aaaad0bfac rcu: Flag need for rcu_node_tree.h and rcu_segcblist.h visibility
The rcu_node_tree.h and rcu_segcblist.h header files in the include/linux
directory might appear at first sight to be internal to the RCU
implementation.  However, the definitions in these files are needed to
determine the size of TREE SRCU's srcu_struct structure, so they must
be externally visible, which is why they live in include/linux.

This commit adds comments to this effect to those files.

* Index values for segments in rcu_segcblist structure.
*
* The segments are as follows:
*
* [head, *tails[RCU_DONE_TAIL]):
* Callbacks whose grace period has elapsed, and thus can be invoked.
* [*tails[RCU_DONE_TAIL], *tails[RCU_WAIT_TAIL]):
* Callbacks waiting for the current GP from the current CPU's viewpoint.
* [*tails[RCU_WAIT_TAIL], *tails[RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL]):
* Callbacks that arrived before the next GP started, again from
* the current CPU's viewpoint. These can be handled by the next GP.
* [*tails[RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL], *tails[RCU_NEXT_TAIL]):
* Callbacks that might have arrived after the next GP started.
* There is some uncertainty as to when a given GP starts and
* ends, but a CPU knows the exact times if it is the one starting
* or ending the GP. Other CPUs know that the previous GP ends
* before the next one starts.
*
* Note that RCU_WAIT_TAIL cannot be empty unless RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL is also
* empty.
*
* The ->gp_seq[] array contains the grace-period number at which the
* corresponding segment of callbacks will be ready to invoke. A given
* element of this array is meaningful only when the corresponding segment
* is non-empty, and it is never valid for RCU_DONE_TAIL (whose callbacks
* are already ready to invoke) or for RCU_NEXT_TAIL (whose callbacks have
* not yet been assigned a grace-period number).
