[PATCH 09/16] rcu/nocb: Merge nocb_timer to the rdp leader

[Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@kernel.org>]

Currently each offline rdp has its own nocb_timer armed when the
nocb_gp wakeup must be deferred. This layout has many drawbacks,
compared to a solution based on a single timer per rdp group:

* It's a lot of timers to maintain.

* The per rdp nocb lock must be held to arm and cancel the timer and it's
  already quite contended.

* Firing one timer doesn't cancel the other rdp's timers in the same
  group:
  - They may conflict and end up with spurious wake ups
  - Each of the rdp that armed a timer need to lock both nocb_lock
    and then nocb_gp_lock upon exit to idle/user/guest mode.

* We can't cancel all of them if we detect an unflushed bypass in
  nocb_gp_wait(). In fact currently we only ever cancel the nocb_timer
  of the leader group.

* The leader group's nocb_timer is cancelled without locking nocb_lock
  in nocb_gp_wait(). It appears to be safe currently but is very error
  prone and hairy for reviewers.

* Since the timer takes the nocb_lock, it requires extra care in the NOCB
  (de-)offloading process, needing it to be either enabled or disabled
  and flushed.

Use a per rdp leader timer instead. It is based on nocb_gp_lock that is
_way_ less contended and stays so after this change. As a matter of fact,
the nocb_timer almost never fires and the deferred wakeup is mostly
handled on idle/user/guest entry. Now the early check performed at this
point in do_nocb_deferred_wakeup() is done on rdp_gp->nocb_defer_wakeup,
which is racy of course. It doesn't matter though because we only need
the guarantee to see the timer armed if we were the last one to arm it.
Any other situation (another rdp has armed it and we either see it or not)
is fine.

This solves all the issues listed above.
