A kernel built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y needs a quiescent state to appear very shortly after a CPU has noticed a new grace period. Placing an RCU reader immediately after this point is ineffective because this normally happens in softirq context, which acts as a big RCU reader. This commit therefore introduces a new per-CPU work_struct, which is used at the end of rcu_core() processing to schedule an RCU read-side critical section from within a clean environment.
