    rcu: Provide functions for determining if call_rcu() has been invoked
    
    This commit adds is_after_call_rcu() and is_after_call_rcu_init()
    functions to help RCU users detect when another CPU has passed
    the specified rcu_head structure and function to call_rcu().
    The is_after_call_rcu_init() should be invoked before making the
    structure visible to RCU readers, and then the is_after_call_rcu() may
    be invoked from within an RCU read-side critical section on an rcu_head
    structure that was obtained during a traversal of the data structure
    in question.  The is_after_call_rcu() function will return true if the
    rcu_head structure has already been passed (with the specified function)
    to call_rcu(), otherwise it will return false.
    
    If is_after_call_rcu_init() has not been invoked on the rcu_head
    structure or if the rcu_head (AKA callback) has already been invoked,
    then is_after_call_rcu() will do WARN_ON_ONCE().
