In that case, I think the comment above cleanup_srcu_struct_quiesced() in
include/linux/srcu.h needs to be updated to cover situations where API
users statically define a SRCU domain in a module and intend to unload
that module.

Given that we end up doing the allocation/cleanup under the hood, the
API users don't interact with init_srcu_struct() nor cleanup_srcu_struct(),
so it's not obvious that this comment also applies to them.

Thanks,

Mathieu
