rcu: Annotate SRCU's update-side lockdep dependencies

Although all flavors of RCU readers are annotated correctly with
lockdep as recursive read locks, they do not set the lock_acquire
'check' parameter.  This means that RCU read locks are not added to
the lockdep dependency graph, which in turn means that lockdep cannot
detect RCU-based deadlocks.  This is not a problem for RCU flavors having
atomic read-side critical sections because context-based annotations can
catch these deadlocks, see for example the RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() statement
in synchronize_rcu().  But context-based annotations are not helpful
for sleepable RCU, especially given that it is perfectly legal to do
synchronize_srcu(&srcu1) within an srcu_read_lock(&srcu2).

However, we can detect SRCU-based by: (1) Making srcu_read_lock() a
'check'ed recursive read lock and (2) Making synchronize_srcu() a empty
write lock critical section.  Even better, with the newly introduced
lock_sync(), we can avoid false positives about irq-unsafe/safe.
This commit therefore makes it so.

Note that NMI-safe SRCU read side critical sections are currently not
annotated, but might be annotated in the future.
