scripts: Make checkpatch.pl warn on expedited RCU grace periods
The synchronize_rcu_expedited() and synchronize_sched_expedited() expedited-grace-period primitives induce OS jitter, which can degrade real-time response. This commit therefore adds a checkpatch.pl warning on any patch adding them. Note that this patch does not warn on synchronize_srcu_expedited() because it does not induce OS jitter, courtesy of its otherwise much-maligned read-side memory barriers. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
