Hi, Paul
I mean that
call_srcu()
->srcu_gp_start_if_needed
->spin_lock_irqsave_sdp_contention
-> spin_trylock_irqsave_rcu_node (may be return false)
->spin_lock_irqsave_rcu_node(ssp->srcu_sup, *flags); <---spinlock

the cur_ops->readlock/unlock() can guarantee that the callback will
not be called
when in the readlock/unlock() critical section.
Besides, for srcu, if invoke preempt_disable(), and the call_srcu()
internally calls
spinlock, which will trigger a lockdep warning in RT-kernels.

mean that IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD)?
