For the record, this was already discussed, see
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/

Note also the patch in this message, __rcu_sync_enter(wait => false)
is a better alternative if someone needs rcu_sync_enter_start() again.

This patch probably makes sense anyway. Not only cgroup_favor_dynmods()
can use __rcu_sync_enter(), freeze_super() can use it too to avoid
3 synchronize_rcu()'s in a row.

Oleg.
