Hmmm...  My current patch doesn't complain about this:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

diff --git a/kernel/rcu/rcutorture.c b/kernel/rcu/rcutorture.c
index 77192953dee5..89577b8d3ba6 100644
--- a/kernel/rcu/rcutorture.c
+++ b/kernel/rcu/rcutorture.c
@@ -492,6 +492,8 @@ static void srcu_read_delay(struct torture_random_state *rrsp)
 	const long uspertick = 1000000 / HZ;
 	const long longdelay = 10;
 
+	synchronize_srcu_expedited(srcu_ctlp);
+
 	/* We want there to be long-running readers, but not all the time. */
 
 	delay = torture_random(rrsp) %

------------------------------------------------------------------------

But it does correctly complain when I add synchronize_rcu_expedited()
or synchronize_sched_expedited().

So what am I missing here?
