It is claimed that srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() NMI-safe. However it
triggers a lockdep if used from NMI because lockdep expects a deadlock
since nothing disables NMIs while the lock is acquired.
Use a try-lock annotation for srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() to avoid lockdep
complains if used from NMI.

My guess is that trylock annotation should not apply to
rcu_lock_acquire(). This would distinguish it from from non-NMI safe
srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() and NMI check in rcu_read_unlock() is only
there to survive if accidentally used in-NMI.
