-rcu: Avoid having just-onlined CPU resched itself when RCU is idle
-
-CPUs set rdp->qs_pending when coming online to resolve races with
-grace-period start. However, this means that if RCU is idle, the
-just-onlined CPU might needlessly send itself resched IPIs. Adjust
-the online-CPU initialization to avoid this, and also to correctly
-cause the CPU to respond to the current grace period if needed.
