rcu: Improve diagnostics for blocked critical sections in irq
If an RCU read-side critical section occurs within an interrupt handler or a softirq handler, it cannot have been preempted. Therefore, there is a check in rcu_read_unlock_special() checking for this error. However, when this check triggers, it lacks diagnostic information. This commit therefore moves rcu_read_unlock()'s lockdep annotation to follow the call to __rcu_read_unlock() and changes rcu_read_unlock_special()'s WARN_ON_ONCE() to an lockdep_rcu_suspicious() in order to locate where the offending RCU read-side critical section began. In addition, the value of the ->rcu_read_unlock_special field is printed. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
