Subject: [PATCH] rcu-tasks: Remove second argument of
 rcu_read_unlock_trace_special()

References: bnc#1189998 (PREEMPT_RT prerequisite backports)
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc1
Git-commit: a5c071ccfa1728508f31e61213ee795e4529d0d4

The second argument of rcu_read_unlock_trace_special() is always zero.
When called from exit_tasks_rcu_finish_trace(), it is the constant
zero, and rcu_read_unlock_trace_special() doesn't get called from
rcu_read_unlock_trace() unless the value of local variable "nesting"
is zero because in that case the early return is taken instead.

This commit therefore removes the "nesting" argument from the
rcu_read_unlock_trace_special() function, substituting the constant
zero within that function.  This commit also adds a WARN_ON_ONCE()
to rcu_read_lock_trace_held() in case non-zeroness some day appears.
