When the rte_rcu_qsbr_check API is called, it is possible to
calculate the least valued token acknowledged by all the readers.
When the API is called next time, the readers' token counters do
not need to be scanned if the value of the token being queried is
less than the last least token acknowledged. This avoids the
cache line bounces between readers and writer.

The same change is needed by test_rcu_qsbr_sw_sv_1qs_non_blocking.
And there are another 2 occurrences in test_rcu_qsbr.c.
