rcu-tasks: Move Tasks RCU to its own file
This code-movement-only commit is in preparation for adding an additional flavor of Tasks RCU, which relies on workqueues to detect grace periods. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>

+ * read-side critical sections are delimited by calls to schedule(),

+ * to synchronize_rcu_tasks(), and (in theory, anyway) cond_resched().
+ *
+ * This is a very specialized primitive, intended only for a few uses in

+ * preambles and profiling hooks. The synchronize_rcu_tasks() function
+ * is not (yet) intended for heavy use from multiple CPUs.
+ *
+ * Note that this guarantee implies further memory-ordering guarantees.
+ * On systems with more than one CPU, when synchronize_rcu_tasks() returns,
+ * each CPU is guaranteed to have executed a full memory barrier since the
+ * end of its last RCU-tasks read-side critical section whose beginning
+ * preceded the call to synchronize_rcu_tasks(). In addition, each CPU
+ * having an RCU-tasks read-side critical section that extends beyond
+ * the return from synchronize_rcu_tasks() is guaranteed to have executed
+ * a full memory barrier after the beginning of synchronize_rcu_tasks()
+ * and before the beginning of that RCU-tasks read-side critical section.
+ * Note that these guarantees include CPUs that are offline, idle, or
+ * executing in user mode, as well as CPUs that are executing in the kernel.
+ *
+ * Furthermore, if CPU A invoked synchronize_rcu_tasks(), which returned
+ * to its caller on CPU B, then both CPU A and CPU B are guaranteed
+ * to have executed a full memory barrier during the execution of
+ * synchronize_rcu_tasks() -- even if CPU A and CPU B are the same CPU
