Unfortunately, there is no foolproof way to verify that an srcu_struct has been initialized, given the possibility of an srcu_struct being allocated on the stack or on the heap. This means that creating an srcu_struct_is_initialized() function is not a reasonable course of action. Nor is peppering do_mmu_notifier_register() with SRCU-specific #ifdefs an attractive alternative. This commit therefore uses DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU() to initialize this srcu_struct at compile time, thus eliminating both the subsys_initcall()-time initialization and the runtime BUG_ON().
