srcu: Provide internal interface to start a Tiny SRCU grace period
There is a need for a polling interface for SRCU grace periods. This polling needs to initiate an SRCU grace period without having to queue (and manage) a callback. This commit therefore splits the Tiny SRCU call_srcu() function into callback-queuing and start-grace-period portions, with the latter in a new function named srcu_gp_start_if_needed().
