This commit documents the implicit RCU readers that are implied by the this_cpu_inc() and atomic_long_inc() operations in __srcu_read_lock_fast() and __srcu_read_unlock_fast(). While in the area, fix the documentation of the memory pairing of atomic_long_inc() in __srcu_read_lock_fast(). [ paulmck: Apply Joel Fernandes feedback. ] Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
