Paul E. McKenney 58ac42f278 srcu: Permit Tiny SRCU srcu_read_unlock() with interrupts disabled ...

The current Tiny SRCU implementation of srcu_read_unlock() awakens
the grace-period processing when exiting the outermost SRCU read-side
critical section.  However, not all Linux-kernel configurations and
contexts permit swake_up_one() to be invoked while interrupts are
disabled, and this can result in indefinitely extended SRCU grace periods.
This commit therefore only invokes swake_up_one() when interrupts are
enabled, and introduces polling to the grace-period workqueue handler.
