rcu/nocb: Simplify (de-)offloading state machine
Now that the (de-)offloading process can only apply to offline CPUs, there is no more concurrency between rcu_core and nocb kthreads. Also the mutation now happens on empty queues. Therefore the state machine can be reduced to a single bit called SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED. Simplify the transition as follows: * Upon offloading: queue the rdp to be added to the rcuog list and wait for the rcuog kthread to set the SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED bit. Unpark rcuo kthread. * Upon de-offloading: Park rcuo kthread. Queue the rdp to be removed from the rcuog list and wait for the rcuog kthread to clear the SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED bit.
