Although it is legal to use RCU during early boot, it is anything but legal to use RCU at runtime from an offlined CPU. After all, RCU explicitly ignores offlined CPUs. This commit therefore adds checks for runtime use of RCU from offlined CPUs. These checks are not perfect, in particular, they can be subverted through use of things like rcu_dereference_raw(). Note that it is not possible to put checks in rcu_read_lock() and friends due to the fact that these primitives are used in code that might be used under either RCU or lock-based protection, which means that checking rcu_read_lock() gets you fat piles of false positives.
