This might need a comment.

The way I understand it is that rcu_state.gp_seq might be seen started while
root_rnp->gp_seq is not. So rcu_seq_snap() on the started rcu_state.gp_seq
may return maximum 2 full GPs ahead of root_rnp->gp_seq. And therefore it takes 
below
2 GPs to safely deduce we wrapped around.

Should it be ULONG_CMP_LT(cur_s, s - (2 * (RCU_SEQ_STATE_MASK + 1))) ?

Or am I missing something?

Thanks.
