rcu: Fix synchronize_rcu() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
The redirection of synchronize_sched() to synchronize_rcu() was appropriate for TREE_RCU, but not for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU. Fix this by creating an underlying synchronize_sched(). TREE_RCU then redirects synchronize_rcu() to synchronize_sched(), while TREE_PREEMPT_RCU has its own version of synchronize_rcu(). Signed-off-by: Paul E.

115 *
116 * This means that all preempt_disable code sequences, including NMI and

122 * This primitive provides the guarantees made by the (now removed)
123 * synchronize_kernel() API. In contrast, synchronize_rcu() only
124 * guarantees that rcu_read_lock() sections will have completed.
125 * In "classic RCU", these two guarantees happen to be one and
126 * the same, but can differ in realtime RCU implementations.
