srcu: Unconditionally record srcu_read_lock_lite() in ->srcu_reader_flavor
Currently, srcu_read_lock_lite() uses the SRCU_READ_FLAVOR_LITE bit in ->srcu_reader_flavor to communicate to the grace-period processing in srcu_readers_active_idx_check() that the smp_mb() must be replaced by a synchronize_rcu(). Unfortunately, ->srcu_reader_flavor is not updated unless the kernel is built with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y. Therefore in all kernels built with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=n, srcu_readers_active_idx_check() incorrectly uses smp_mb() instead of synchronize_rcu() for srcu_struct structures whose readers use srcu_read_lock_lite(). This commit therefore causes Tree SRCU srcu_read_lock_lite() to unconditionally update ->srcu_reader_flavor so that srcu_readers_active_idx_check() can make the correct choice.
