The rcu_tasks_trace_postgp() function uses for_each_process_thread() to scan the task list without the benefit of RCU read-side protection, which can result in use-after-free errors on task_struct structures. This error was missed because the TRACE01 rcutorture scenario enables lockdep, but also builds with CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y. In this situation, preemption is disabled everywhere, so lockdep thinks everywhere can be a legitimate RCU reader. This commit therefore adds the needed rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock(). Note that this bug can occur only after an RCU Tasks Trace CPU stall warning, which by default only happens after a grace period has extended for ten minutes (yes, not a typo, minutes).
