rcutorture: Prepare for asynchronous access to rcu_fwd_startat
Because rcutorture's forward-progress checking will trigger from an OOM notifier, this notifier will introduce asynchronous concurrent access to the rcu_fwd_startat variable. This commit therefore prepares for this by converting updates to WRITE_ONCE(). Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.ibm.com>
