rcu: Move expedited code from tree_plugin.h to tree_exp.h
People have been having some difficulty finding their way around the RCU code. This commit therefore pulls some of the expedited grace-period code from tree_plugin.h to a new tree_exp.h file. This commit is strictly code movement. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

+ *
+ * Wait for an RCU-preempt grace period, but expedite it. The basic
+ * idea is to IPI all non-idle non-nohz online CPUs. The IPI handler
+ * checks whether the CPU is in an RCU-preempt critical section, and
+ * if so, it sets a flag that causes the outermost rcu_read_unlock()
+ * to report the quiescent state. On the other hand, if the CPU is
+ * not in an RCU read-side critical section, the IPI handler reports
+ * the quiescent state immediately.
+ *
+ * Although this is a greate improvement over previous expedited
+ * implementations, it is still unfriendly to real-time workloads, so is
+ * thus not recommended for any sort of common-case code. In fact, if
+ * you are using synchronize_rcu_expedited() in a loop, please restructure
+ * your code to batch your updates, and then Use a single synchronize_rcu()
+ * instead.
