Paul E. McKenney a50c3af910 rcu: Don't make callbacks go through second full grace period
RCU's current CPU-offline code path dumps all of the outgoing CPU's
callbacks onto the RCU_NEXT_TAIL portion of the surviving CPU's
callback list.  This means that all the ready-to-invoke callbacks from
the outgoing CPU must wait for another full RCU grace period.  This was
just fine when CPU-hotplug events were rare, but there is increasing
evidence that users are planning to make increasing use of CPU hotplug.

Therefore, this commit changes the callback-dumping procedure so that
callbacks that are ready to invoke are moved to the RCU_DONE_TAIL
portion of the surviving CPU's callback list.  This avoids running
these callbacks through a second unnecessary grace period.
