Subject: [RFC PATCH 3/3] Fix: tracepoint: rcu get state and cond sync for static call updates

State transitions from 1->0->1 and N->2->1 callbacks require RCU
synchronization. Rather than performing the RCU synchronization every
time the state change occurs, which is quite slow when many tracepoints
are registered in batch, instead keep a snapshot of the RCU state on the
most recent transitions which belong to a chain, and conditionally wait
for a grace period on the last transition of the chain if one g.p. has
not elapsed since the last snapshot.

This applies to both RCU and SRCU.

[ Build tested only. ]
