If a given statically allocated in-module srcu_struct structure was ever used for updates, srcu_module_going() will invoke cleanup_srcu_struct() at module-exit time. This will check for the error case of SRCU readers persisting past module-exit time. On the other hand, if this srcu_struct structure never went through a grace period, srcu_module_going() only invokes free_percpu(), which would result in strange failures if SRCU readers persisted past module-exit time. This commit therefore adds a srcu_readers_active() check to srcu_module_going(), splatting if readers have persisted and refraining from invoking free_percpu() in that case. Better to leak memory than to suffer silent memory corruption!
