[PATCH rcu 04/15] srcu: Bit manipulation changes for additional reader flavor

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Tue Oct 15 2024 - 12:12:04 EST


Currently, there are only two flavors of readers, normal and NMI-safe.
Very straightforward state updates suffice to check for erroneous
mixing of reader flavors on a given srcu_struct structure. This commit
upgrades the checking in preparation for the addition of light-weight
(as in memory-barrier-free) readers.
