srcu: Initialize SRCU after timers
Once srcu_init() is called, the SRCU core will make use of delayed workqueues, which rely on timers. However init_timers() is called several steps after rcu_init(). This means that a call_srcu() after rcu_init() but before init_timers() would find itself within a dangerously uninitialized timer core. This commit therefore creates a separate call to srcu_init() after init_timer() completes, which ensures that we stay in early SRCU mode until timers are safe(r).
