This commit switches the existing polled grace-period APIs to use a new ->gp_seq_polled counter in the rcu_state structure. An additional ->gp_seq_polled_snap counter in that same structure allows the normal grace period kthread to interact properly with the !SMP !PREEMPT fastpath through synchronize_rcu(). The first of the two to note the end of a given grace period will make knowledge of this transition available to the polled API. This commit is in preparation for polled expedited grace periods. [ paulmck: Fix use of rcu_state.gp_seq_polled to start normal grace period. ] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220121142454.1994916-1-bfoster@redhat.com/ Link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RNKWW9jQyfjxw2E8dsXVTdvZYh0HnYeSHDKog9jhdN8/edit?usp=sharing Cc: Brian Foster <bfoster@redhat.com> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net> Co-developed-by: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
