Currently, poll_state_synchronize_rcu() uses rcu_seq_done() to check whether the specified grace period has completed. However, rcu_seq_done() does a simple comparison that reserves have of the sequence-number space for uncompleted grace periods. This has the unfortunate side-effect of not handling sequence-number wrap gracefully. Of course, one can argue that if someone has already waited for half of the full range of grace periods, they can wait for the other half, but why wait at all in this case? This commit therefore creates a rcu_seq_done_exact() that counts as uncompleted only the two grace periods during which the sequence number might have been handed out, while still being uncompleted. This way, if sequence-number wrap happens to hit that range, at most two additional grace periods need be waited for. This commit is in preparation for polled expedited grace periods.
