This commit gets rid of the task_struct structure's ->trc_reader_checked field, making it instead be a bit within the task_struct structure's existing ->trc_reader_special.b.need_qs field. This commit also atomically loads, stores, and checks the resulting combination of the reader-checked and need-quiescent state flags. This will in turn allow significant simplification of the rcu_tasks_trace_postgp() function as well as elimination of the trc_n_readers_need_end counter in later commits. These changes will in turn simplify later elimination of the RCU Tasks Trace scan of the task list, which will make RCU Tasks Trace grace periods less CPU-intensive.
