From: "Paul E. McKenney" <[email protected]>

There is a need for a polling interface for SRCU grace periods.
This polling needs to initiate an SRCU grace period without
having to queue (and manage) a callback.  This commit therefore
splits the Tiny SRCU call_srcu() function into callback-queuing and
start-grace-period portions, with the latter in a new function named
srcu_gp_start_if_needed().
