rcu: Add lockdep-enabled variants of rcu_dereference()
Make rcu_dereference() check for being in an RCU read-side critical section, and create rcu_dereference_bh(), rcu_dereference_sched(), and srcu_dereference() to check for the other flavors of RCU. Also create rcu_dereference_raw() to avoid checking, and make rcu_dereference_check() use rcu_dereference_raw(). Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
