Hi Sean,

Overall this looks quite clean to me.
Please find minor some nits flagged by tooling below.

I think that wrapped needs an __rcu annotation.

The line above dereferences pcs.

But here it is assumed that pcs may be NULL.
This does not seem consistent.

Assuming that rcu_access_pointer() works with srcu,
I think that this should be:

		if (rcu_access_pointer(wrapper->wrapped) == pcs)

Reverse xmas tree here please.
