Summary
rcu: Fix __this_cpu_read() lockdep warning in rcu_force_quiescent_state()
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

rcu: Fix __this_cpu_read() lockdep warning in rcu_force_quiescent_state()

Running rcutorture with non-zero fqs_duration module parameter in a kernel built with CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y results in the following splat:

BUG: using __this_cpu_read() in preemptible [00000000] code: rcu_torture_fqs/398 caller is __this_cpu_preempt_check+0x13/0x20 CPU: 3 PID: 398 Comm: rcu_torture_fqs Not tainted 6.0.0-rc1-yoctodev-standard+ Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x5b/0x86 dump_stack+0x10/0x16 check_preemption_disabled+0xe5/0xf0 __this_cpu_preempt_check+0x13/0x20 rcu_force_quiescent_state.part.0+0x1c/0x170 rcu_force_quiescent_state+0x1e/0x30 rcu_torture_fqs+0xca/0x160 ? rcu_torture_boost+0x430/0x430 kthread+0x192/0x1d0 ? kthread_complete_and_exit+0x30/0x30 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30

The problem is that rcu_force_quiescent_state() uses __this_cpu_read() in preemptible code instead of the proper raw_cpu_read(). This commit therefore changes __this_cpu_read() to raw_cpu_read().
