rcu/nocb: Limit number of softirq callbacks only on softirq
The current condition to limit the number of callbacks executed in a
row checks the offloaded state of the rdp. Not only is it volatile
but it is also misleading: the rcu_core() may well be executing
callbacks concurrently with NOCB kthreads, and the offloaded state
would then be verified on both cases. As a result the limit would
spuriously not apply anymore on softirq while in the middle of
(de-)offloading process.
Fix and clarify the condition with those constraints in mind:
_ If callbacks are processed either by rcuc or NOCB kthread, the call
to cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() is enough to take care of the overload.
_ If instead callbacks are processed by softirqs:
* If need_resched(), exit the callbacks processing
* Otherwise if CPU is idle we can continue
* Otherwise exit because a softirq shouldn't interrupt a task for too
long nor deprive other pending softirq vectors of the CPU.
