Initially (and perhaps forever), call_srcu() will not be available for atomic srcu_struct structures. There is therefore no reason to transition such a structure to big, because the main purpose of such a transition is to reduce lock contention for concurrent SRCU callback queueing.
This commit therefore adds an is_atomic parameter to both the check_init_srcu_struct() and init_srcu_struct_fields() functions, which suppresses the initialization-time transition to big that is enabled by default on large systems. It will still be possible to force a transition using rcutorture as a destructive test. This might (or might not) be adjusted later.
