Hello, Shuah,

I have queued it with Lance's ack and Josh's review.

Just for full disclosure, my recent SRCU work has broken srcu-cbmc,
and a bit more breakage is on its way. :-(

That said, I would welcome patches to fix it -- mostly adjustments in
pathnames, structure names, and which fields get removed. Adjusting it
to work correctly with Classic SRCU would probably be a bit easier than
adapting it to either Tree SRCU or Tiny SRCU.

Thanx, Paul
