Paul E. McKenney cd0f597c8a rcu-tasks: Simplify trc_read_check_handler() atomic operations ...

commit 96017bf9039763a2e02dcc6adaa18592cd73a39d upstream.

Currently, trc_wait_for_one_reader() atomically increments
the trc_n_readers_need_end counter before sending the IPI
invoking trc_read_check_handler().  All failure paths out of
trc_read_check_handler() and also from the smp_call_function_single()
within trc_wait_for_one_reader() must carefully atomically decrement
this counter.  This is more complex than it needs to be.

This commit therefore simplifies things and saves a few lines of
code by dispensing with the atomic decrements in favor of having
trc_read_check_handler() do the atomic increment only in the success case.
In theory, this represents no change in functionality.
