This adds absolutely no overhead in non-debug builds of CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU,
does the checking in debug builds, and allows voluntary preemption in
!CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU builds.  CONFIG_PROVE_RCU builds will check for an
(illegal) outer rcu_read_lock() in CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU builds, and you
will get "scheduling while atomic" in response to an outer rcu_read_lock()
in !CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU builds.

It also seems to me a lot simpler.

Does this work, or am I still missing something?

	Works perfectly. Thanks! Tested CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y/n,
the errors messages with extra RCU lock.
