Much improved, thank you!  A few more comments below.

Please use something like "struct rcu_tasks_test_desc" to help the poor
people who might need to grep for this.  Feel free to shorten it, but
please make it descriptive and thus more likely to stay unique.

If you make this "bool notrun" you don't need to initialize.

	struct rcu_tasks_test_desc *rttdp;

	rttdp = container_of(rhp, rh, struct rcu_tasks_test_desc);
	rttdp->notrun = true;

Or I suppose:

	container_of(rhp, rh, struct rcu_tasks_test_desc)->notrun = true;

Then the loop below can go away.

The s/run/notrun/ allows the three initializations of .run to go away.

Why not reverse the order of these two statements?  That would test
call_rcu_tasks*()'s ability to do a grace period on their own, without
help from the corresponding synchronize_rcu_tasks*().

Why not initialize "ret" in the declaration?

Again, much improved!
