[PATCH tip/core/rcu 04/19] rcu: Add *_ONCE() and data_race() to rcu_node ->exp_tasks plus locking

There are lockless loads from the rcu_node structure's ->exp_tasks field,
so this commit causes all stores to use WRITE_ONCE() and all lockless
loads to use READ_ONCE() or data_race(), with the latter for debug
prints. This code also did a unprotected traversal of the linked list
pointed into by ->exp_tasks, so this commit also acquires the rcu_node
structure's ->lock to properly protect this traversal. This list was
traversed unprotected only when printing an RCU CPU stall warning for
an expedited grace period, so the odds of seeing this in production are
not all that high.

This data race was reported by KCSAN.
