This commit moves the ->reschedule_jiffies, ->reschedule_count, and ->work fields from the srcu_struct structure to the srcu_usage structure to reduce the size of the former in order to improve cache locality. However, this means that the container_of() calls cannot get a pointer to the srcu_struct because they are no longer in the srcu_struct. This issue is addressed by adding a ->srcu_ssp field in the srcu_usage structure that references the corresponding srcu_struct structure. And given the presence of the sup pointer to the srcu_usage structure, replace some ssp->srcu_usage-> instances with sup->.

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 Restructured Text 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.
