affs: fix remount failure when there are no options changed
Commit c8f33d0bec99 ("affs: kstrdup() memory handling") checks if the kstrdup function returns NULL due to out-of-memory condition. However, if we are remounting a filesystem with no change to filesystem-specific options, the parameter data is NULL. In this case, kstrdup returns NULL (because it was passed NULL parameter), although no out of memory condition exists. The mount syscall then fails with ENOMEM. This patch fixes the bug. We fail with ENOMEM only if data is non-NULL. The patch also changes the call to replace_mount_options - if we didn't pass any filesystem-specific options, we don't call replace_mount_options (thus we don't erase existing reported options).

This commit therefore reworks RCU to permit synchronous grace periods to proceed during this mid-boot phase. This commit is therefore a fix to a regression introduced in v4.9, and is therefore being put forward post-merge-window in v4.10. This commit sets a flag from the existing rcu_scheduler_starting() function which causes all synchronous grace periods to take the expedited path. The expedited path now checks this flag, using the requesting task to drive the expedited grace period forward during the mid-boot phase. Finally, this flag is updated by a core_initcall() function named rcu_exp_runtime_mode(), which causes the runtime codepaths to be used. Note that this arrangement assumes that tasks are not sent POSIX signals (or anything similar) from the time that the first task is spawned through core_initcall() time.
