For use the init_srcu_struct*() to initialized srcu structure,
the srcu structure's->srcu_sup and sda use GFP_KERNEL flags to
allocate memory. similarly, if set SRCU_SIZING_INIT, the
srcu_sup's->node can still use GFP_KERNEL flags to allocate
memory, not need to use GFP_ATOMIC flags all the time.

Will apply and send out to the list (soon) with other patches for further review
and testing.
