srcu: Simplify __srcu_read_unlock() via this_cpu_dec()
This commit replaces disabling of preemption and decrement of a per-CPU variable with this_cpu_dec(), which avoids preemption disabling on x86 and shortens the code on all platforms. Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
