The very useful RCU Data-Structures describes that the dynticks counter of the rcu_dynticks data structure is incremented when we transitions to or from dynticks-idle mode. However it doesn't mention that it is also incremented due to transitions to and from user mode which for dynticks purposes is an extended quiescent state. I found this with tracing calls to rcu_dynticks_eqs_enter which can also happen from rcu_user_enter. Lets add this information to the Data-Structures document.
