 147 * rcu_read_lock - mark the beginning of an RCU read-side critical section.
 148 *
 149 * When synchronize_rcu() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
 150 * are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the
 151 * synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
 152 * CPUs exit their critical sections.  Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
 153 * on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
 154 * sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
 155 * until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
 156 *
 157 * Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
 158 * with RCU read-side critical sections.  One way that this can happen
 159 * is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
 160 * read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
 161 * an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
 162 * (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
 163 * callback is invoked.  This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
 164 * section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
 165 * therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
 166 * callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
 167 * RCU callback is invoked.
 168 *
 169 * RCU read-side critical sections may be nested.  Any deferred actions
 170 * will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
 171 * completes.
 172 *
 173 * It is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section.
