rcu: Ignore userspace extended quiescent state by default

By default we don't want to enter into RCU extended quiescent
state while in userspace because doing this produces some overhead
(eg: use of syscall slowpath). Set it off by default and ready to
run when some feature like adaptive tickless need it.
