There is a need for a polling interface for SRCU grace periods. This polling needs to distinguish between an SRCU instance being idle on the one hand or in the middle of a grace period on the other. This commit therefore converts the Tiny SRCU srcu_struct structure's srcu_idx from a defacto boolean to a free-running counter, using the bottom bit to indicate that a grace period is in progress. The second-from-bottom bit is thus used as the index returned by srcu_read_lock().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
