For the version in rcu -dev:

Reviewed-by: Neeraj Upadhyay <neeraju@codeaurora.org>

Only minor point which I have is, the idx calculation can be made an
inline func (though srcu_drive_gp() does not require a READ_ONCE for
->srcu_idx):

__srcu_read_lock() and srcu_torture_stats_print() are using

idx = ((READ_ONCE(ssp->srcu_idx) + 1) & 0x2) >> 1;

whereas srcu_drive_gp() uses:

idx = (ssp->srcu_idx & 0x2) / 2;

Thanks
