Oleg Nesterov 89da3b94bb rcu/sync: Simplify the state machine
With this patch rcu_sync has a single state variable and the transition rules
become really simple:

	GP_IDLE   - owned by the first rcu_sync_enter() which moves it to

	GP_ENTER  - owned by rcu-callback which moves it to

	GP_PASSED - owned by the last rcu_sync_exit() which moves it to

	GP_EXIT   - and this is the only "nontrivial" state.

		rcu-callback moves it back to GP_IDLE unless another enter()
		comes before a GP pass.

		If rcu-callback is invoked before the next rcu_sync_exit() it
		must see gp_count incremented by that enter() and set GP_PASSED.

		Otherwise, if the next rcu_sync_exit() wins the race, it will
		move it to

	GP_REPLAY - owned by rcu-callback which moves it to GP_EXIT
