rcu: provide a static initializer for hlist_nulls_head
Patch series "ucount: Simplify refcounting with rcuref_t".
I noticed that the atomic_dec_and_lock_irqsave() in put_ucounts() loops
sometimes even during boot. Something like 2-3 iterations but still.
This series replaces the refcounting with rcuref_t and adds a RCU lookup.
This allows a lockless lookup in alloc_ucounts() if the entry is available
and a cmpxchg()less put of the item.
This patch (of 4):
Provide a static initializer for hlist_nulls_head so that it can be used
in statically defined data structures.
