[PATCH v5 04/18] rcu: Fix late wakeup when flush of bypass cblist happens

["Joel Fernandes (Google)" <joel@joelfernandes.org>]

When the bypass cblist gets too big or its timeout has occurred, it is
flushed into the main cblist. However, the bypass timer is still running
and the behavior is that it would eventually expire and wake the GP
thread.

Since we are going to use the bypass cblist for lazy CBs, do the wakeup
soon as the flush happens. Otherwise, the lazy-timer will go off much
later and the now-non-lazy cblist CBs can get stranded for the duration
of the timer.

This is a good thing to do anyway (regardless of this series), since it
makes the behavior consistent with behavior of other code paths where queueing
something into the ->cblist makes the GP kthread in a non-sleeping state
quickly.
