[PATCH 5.4 015/344] rcu: Fix data-race due to atomic_t copy-by-value

From: Marco Elver <elver@google.com>

[ Upstream commit 6cf539a87a61a4fbc43f625267dbcbcf283872ed ]

This fixes a data-race where `atomic_t dynticks` is copied by value. The
copy is performed non-atomically, resulting in a data-race if `dynticks`
is updated concurrently.

This data-race was found with KCSAN:
