From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx>
The rcu_state structure's gp_seq field is only to be modified by the RCU
grace-period kthread, which is single-threaded. This commit therefore
enlists KCSAN's help in enforcing this restriction. This commit applies
KCSAN-specific primitives, so cannot go upstream until KCSAN does.
