Paul E. McKenney 43a89baecf rcu: Export rcu_request_urgent_qs_task()
If a CPU is executing a long series of non-sleeping system calls,
RCU grace periods can be delayed for on the order of a couple hundred
milliseconds.  This is normally not a problem, but if each system call
does a call_rcu(), those callbacks can stack up.  RCU will eventually
notice this callback storm, but use of rcu_request_urgent_qs_task()
allows the code invoking call_rcu() to give RCU a heads up.

This function is not for general use, not yet, anyway.
