[PATCH rcu 20/23] context_tracking: Convert state to atomic_t

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Jun 20 2022 - 19:16:01 EST


From: Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@xxxxxxxxxx>

Context tracking's state and dynticks counter are going to be merged
in a single field so that both updates can happen atomically and at the
same time. Prepare for that with converting the state into an atomic_t.
