rcu: Fix grace-period hangs due to race with CPU offline

Without special fail-safe quiescent-state-propagation checks, grace-period
hangs can result from the following scenario:

1.	CPU 1 goes offline.

2.	Because CPU 1 is the only CPU in the system blocking the current
	grace period, the grace period ends as soon as
	rcu_cleanup_dying_idle_cpu()'s call to rcu_report_qs_rnp()
	returns.

3.	At this point, the leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock is no longer
	held: rcu_report_qs_rnp() has released it, as it must in order
	to awaken the RCU grace-period kthread.

4.	At this point, that same leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmaskinitnext
	field still records CPU 1 as being online.  This is absolutely
	necessary because the scheduler uses RCU (in this case on the
	wake-up path while awakening RCU's grace-period kthread), and
	->qsmaskinitnext contains RCU's idea as to which CPUs are online.
	Therefore, invoking rcu_report_qs_rnp() after clearing CPU 1's
	bit from ->qsmaskinitnext would result in a lockdep-RCU splat
	due to RCU being used from an offline CPU.

5.	RCU's grace-period kthread awakens, sees that the old grace period
	has completed and that a new one is needed.  It therefore starts
	a new grace period, but because CPU 1's leaf rcu_node structure's
	->qsmaskinitnext field still shows CPU 1 as being online, this new
	grace period is initialized to wait for a quiescent state from the
	now-offline CPU 1.

6.	Without the fail-safe force-quiescent-state checks, there would
	be no quiescent state from the now-offline CPU 1, which would
	eventually result in RCU CPU stall warnings and memory exhaustion.

It would be good to get rid of the special fail-safe quiescent-state
propagation checks, and thus it would be good to fix things so that
the above scenario cannot happen.  This commit therefore adds a new
->ofl_lock to the rcu_state structure.  This lock is held by rcu_gp_init()
across the applying of buffered online and offline operations to the
rcu_node tree, and it is also held by rcu_cleanup_dying_idle_cpu()
when buffering a new offline operation.  This prevents rcu_gp_init()
from acquiring the leaf rcu_node structure's lock during the interval
between when rcu_cleanup_dying_idle_cpu() invokes rcu_report_qs_rnp(),
which releases ->lock and the re-acquisition of that same lock.
This in turn prevents the failure scenario outlined above, and will
hopefully eventually allow removal of the offline-CPU checks from the
force-quiescent-state code path.
