The SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU example code snippet is having not tiny RCU
read-side critical section. 'Documentation/RCU/rculist_nulls.rst' has
similar example code snippet, and commit da82af04352b ("doc: Update and
wordsmith rculist_nulls.rst") has broken it. Apply the change to
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU example code snippet, too.

*
+ * begin:
* rcu_read_lock();
- * again:
