Back when only one rcutorture kthread could do forward-progress testing, it was just fine for rcu_fwd_cb_nodelay to be a non-atomic bool. It was set at the start of forward-progress testing and cleared at the end. But now that there are multiple threads, the value can be cleared while one of the threads is still doing forward-progress testing. This commit therefore makes rcu_fwd_cb_nodelay be an atomic counter, replacing the WRITE_ONCE() operations with atomic_inc() and atomic_dec(). Signed-off-by: Paul E.
