[PATCH tip/core/rcu 24/41] modules: Replace synchronize_sched() and call_rcu_sched()

Paul E. McKenney

Now that synchronize_rcu() waits for preempt-disable regions of code
as well as RCU read-side critical sections, synchronize_sched() can
be replaced by synchronize_rcu(). Similarly, call_rcu_sched() can be
replaced by call_rcu(). This commit therefore makes these changes.
