The below is splatting when running kvm-unit-test.

     =============================
     WARNING: suspicious RCU usage

resampler-list is traversed using srcu_read_lock() in irqfd_resampler_ack, 
let's fix this false positive by list_for_each_entry_srcu() instead and 
lockdep expression srcu_read_lock_head() be passed as the cond argument.
