[PATCH 2/3] srcu: queue work without holding the lock

[Sebastian Andrzej Siewior]

On RT we can't invoke queue_delayed_work() within an atomic section
(which is provided by raw_spin_lock_irqsave()).
srcu_reschedule() invokes queue_delayed_work() outside of the
raw_spin_lock_irq_rcu_node() section so this should be fine here, too.
If the remaining callers of call_srcu() aren't atomic
(spin_lock_irqsave() is fine) then this should work on RT, too.
