Subject: [PATCH 5.5 036/367] srcu: Apply *_ONCE() to ->srcu_last_gp_end

From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@...nel.org>

commit 844a378de3372c923909681706d62336d702531e upstream.

The ->srcu_last_gp_end field is accessed from any CPU at any time
by synchronize_srcu(), so non-initialization references need to use
READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE().  This commit therefore makes that change.
