Urgent RCU pull request for v6.1

Browse source 
This pull request contains a commit that fixes bf95b2bc3e ("rcu: Switch
 polled grace-period APIs to ->gp_seq_polled"), which could incorrectly
 leave interrupts enabled after an early-boot call to synchronize_rcu().
 Such synchronize_rcu() calls must acquire leaf rcu_node locks in order to
 properly interact with polled grace periods, but the code did not take
 into account the possibility of synchronize_rcu() being invoked from
 the portion of the boot sequence during which interrupts are disabled.
 This commit therefore switches the lock acquisition and release from
 irq to irqsave/irqrestore.

Pull RCU fix from Paul McKenney:
 "Fix a regression caused by commit bf95b2bc3e ("rcu: Switch polled

  take into account the possibility of synchronize_rcu() being invoked
