From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx>
RCU keeps a count of the number of callbacks that the current
rcu_barrier() is waiting on, but there is currently no easy way to
work out which callback is stuck. One way to do this is to mark idle
RCU-barrier callbacks by making the ->next pointer point to the callback
itself, and this commit does just that.
Later commits will use this for debug output.
