Subject: [PATCH 06/11] rcu: Make srcu_read_lock_held() call common lockdep-enabled function

A common debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() function is used to check whether
RCU lockdep splats should be reported, but srcu_read_lock() does not
use it.  This commit therefore brings srcu_read_lock_held() up to date.
