Yes, allocate the srcu dynamically on module init and destroy on
module exit. That's how the other similar case got solved too. We
can't keep bumping up reserved size by the number of static SRCUs in
modules. It's mostly there to make trivial small things easier. We
don't lose anything meaningful by allocating srcu dynamically.
Thanks.
