The debugfs RCU trips many debug kernel warnings because of potential sleeps with an RCU read lock held. This includes both user copy calls and slab allocations throughout the file. This patch switches the RCU to use SRCU for file remove/access race protection. In one case, the SRCU is implicit in the use of the raw debugfs file object and just works. In the seq_file case, a wrapper around seq_read() and seq_lseek() is used to enforce the SRCU using the debugfs supplied functions debugfs_use_file_start() and debugfs_use_file_stop(). The sychronize_rcu() is deleted since the SRCU prevents the remove access race. The RCU locking is kept for qp_stats since the QP hash list is protected using the non-sleepable RCU.
