Subject: [PATCH v2 tip/core/rcu 3/6] rcu: Abstract dynticks extended quiescent state enter/exit operations

This commit is the third step towards full abstraction of all accesses
to the ->dynticks counter, implementing the previously open-coded atomic
add of 1 and entry checks in a new rcu_dynticks_eqs_enter() function, and
the same but with exit checks in a new rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit() function.
This abstraction will ease changes to the ->dynticks counter operation.

Note that this commit gets rid of the smp_mb__before_atomic() and the
smp_mb__after_atomic() calls that were previously present.  The reason
that this is OK from a memory-ordering perspective is that the atomic
operation is now atomic_add_return(), which, as a value-returning atomic,
guarantees full ordering.
