Here is a v5 of my Hazard Pointers series. I know Boqun has a use case
for it for lockdep.

This new version has those significant changes since v4:

- Fold scheduler integration.
- Actually set ctx slot to backup slot on context switch.
- Remove CONFIG_PREEMPT_HAZPTR config option.
- Use per-cpu ctx pointers for context switch slot tracking
  rather than per-task lists. This accelerates the hazptr
  acquire/release fast-path.
- Guarantee scan forward progress with two-lists scheme.
- Reimplement the hazptr acquire with a temporary wildcard
  to eliminate a dependency on the addr_p load, likely to
  cause a pipeline stall due to the needed memory barrier.
  This simplifies the algorithm, removes the need for pointer
  re-load + comparison, and is expected to be faster on some
  architectures.
- Reduce number of percpu slots to 4, introduce a hazptr_slot_item
  struct to contain both the slot and ctx pointers. Reducing number
  of slots to 4 makes sure all the slot and ctx pointers fit in a
  single cache line.
- Rebased on v7.0-rc1.

Feedback is welcome,

Thanks,

Mathieu
