rcu: Finer-grained grace-period-end checks in rcu_dump_cpu_stacks()
This commit pushes the grace-period-end checks further down into
rcu_dump_cpu_stacks(), and also uses lockless checks coupled with
finer-grained locking.
The result is that the current leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock is
acquired only if a stack backtrace might be needed from the current CPU,
and is held across only that CPU's backtrace. As a result, if there are
no stalled CPUs associated with a given rcu_node structure, then its
->lock will not be acquired at all. On large systems, it is usually
(though not always) the case that a small number of CPUs are stalling
the current grace period, which means that the ->lock need be acquired
only for a small fraction of the rcu_node structures.
