[PATCH tip/core/rcu 18/18] rcu: Correct READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() for ->rcu_read_unlock_special

[Paul E. McKenney]

The task_struct structure's ->rcu_read_unlock_special field is only ever
read or written by the owning task, but it is accessed both at process
and interrupt levels.  It may therefore be accessed using plain reads
and writes while interrupts are disabled, but must be accessed using
READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() or better otherwise.  This commit makes a
few adjustments to align with this discipline.
