Dan Williams 956a4cd2c9 device-dax: switch to srcu, fix rcu_read_lock() vs pte allocation 
The following warning triggers with a new unit test that stresses the
device-dax interface.

 ===============================
 [ ERR: suspicious RCU usage.  ]
 4.11.0-rc4+ #1049 Tainted: G           O
 -------------------------------
 ./include/linux/rcupdate.h:521 Illegal context switch in RCU read-side critical section!

 other info that might help us debug this:

 rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 0

Inserting a page table entry may trigger an allocation while we are
holding a read lock to keep the device instance alive for the duration
of the fault. Use srcu for this keep-alive protection.
