v6 version of RCU lazy patches based on rcu/next branch.
To facilitate easier merge, I dropped tracing and other patches and just implemented the new changes. I will post the tracing patches later along with rcutop as I need to add new tracepoints that Frederic suggested.
Main changes: 1. rcu_barrier() wake up only for lazy bypass list. 2. Make all call_rcu() default-lazy and add call_rcu_flush() API. 3. Take care of some callers using call_rcu_flush() API.
I am seeing good performance and power with these patches on real ChromeOS x86 asymmetric hardware.
v5 cover letter is here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220901221720.1105021-1-joel@joelfernandes.org/
