Subject: [PATCH 3/4 V2] implement per-domain single-thread state machine call_srcu()

o	state machine is light way and single-threaded, it is preemptible when checking.

o	state machine is a work_struct. So, there is no thread occupied
	by SRCU when the srcu is not actived(no callback). And it does
	not sleep(avoid to occupy a thread when sleep).

o	state machine is the only thread can flip/check/write(*) the srcu_struct,
	so we don't need any mutex.
	(write(*): except ->per_cpu_ref, ->running, ->batch_queue)

o	synchronize_srcu() will take the processing ownership when no other
	state-machine is running.(the task of synchronize_srcu() becomes
	the state-machine-thread). This fast patch can avoid scheduling.
	When the fast path fails, it falls back to "call_srcu() + wait".

o	callback is probably called in the same CPU when it is queued.

The trip of a callback:
	1) ->batch_queue when call_srcu()

	2) ->batch_check0 when try to do check_zero

	3) ->batch_check1 after finish its first check_zero and the flip

	4) ->batch_done after finish its second check_zero

The current requirement of the callbacks:
	The callback will be called inside process context.
	The callback should be fast without any sleeping path.
