a suspicious RCU usage warning.

It is safe because smi_watchers_mutex is locked and srcu_read_lock
has been used, so simply pass lockdep_is_held() to the
list_for_each_entry_rcu() to suppress this warning.

Thanks. I had looked at this and found it was ok, but I hand't spent
the time to figure out how to suppress it. It's in my next queue.
