Paul E. McKenney df5bd5144a rcu: Reduce expedited GP memory contention via per-CPU variables
Currently, the piggybacked-work checks carried out by sync_exp_work_done()
atomically increment a small set of variables (the ->expedited_workdone0,
->expedited_workdone1, ->expedited_workdone2, ->expedited_workdone3
fields in the rcu_state structure), which will form a memory-contention
bottleneck given a sufficiently large number of CPUs concurrently invoking
either synchronize_rcu_expedited() or synchronize_sched_expedited().

This commit therefore moves these for fields to the per-CPU rcu_data
structure, eliminating the memory contention.  The show_rcuexp() function
also changes to sum up each field in the rcu_data structures.
