srcu: Force synchronization for srcu_get_delay()

Browse source

Currently, srcu_get_delay() can be called concurrently, for example,
by a CPU that is the first to request a new grace period and the CPU
processing the current grace period.  Although concurrent access is
harmless, it unnecessarily expands the state space.  Additionally,
all calls to srcu_get_delay() are from slow paths.

This commit therefore protects all calls to srcu_get_delay() with
ssp->srcu_sup->lock, which is already held on the invocation from the
srcu_funnel_gp_start() function.  While in the area, this commit also
adds a lockdep_assert_held() to srcu_get_delay() itself.
