Subject: [PATCH v2] PM: sleep: annotate RCU list iterations

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@...el.com>

These iterations require the read lock, otherwise RCU
lockdep will splat:

=============================
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
6.17.0-rc3-00014-g31419c045d64 #6 Tainted: G           O
-----------------------------
drivers/base/power/main.c:1333 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
5 locks held by rtcwake/547:

Add the fourth argument to the iteration to annotate
this and avoid the splat.
