rcu: Provide rcu_expedite_gp() and rcu_unexpedite_gp()
Currently, expediting of normal synchronous grace-period primitives
(synchronize_rcu() and friends) is controlled by the rcu_expedited()
boot/sysfs parameter. This works well, but does not handle nesting.
This commit therefore provides rcu_expedite_gp() to enable expediting
and rcu_unexpedite_gp() to cancel a prior rcu_expedite_gp(), both of
which support nesting.
