Frederic Weisbecker 213d56bf33 rcu/nocb: Prepare state machine for a new step
Currently SEGCBLIST_SOFTIRQ_ONLY is a bit of an exception among the
segcblist flags because it is an exclusive state that doesn't mix up
with the other flags. Remove it in favour of:

_ A flag specifying that rcu_core() needs to perform callbacks execution
  and acceleration

and

_ A flag specifying we want the nocb lock to be held in any needed
  circumstances

This clarifies the code and is more flexible: It allows to have a state
where rcu_core() runs with locking while offloading hasn't started yet.
This is a necessary step to prepare for triggering rcu_core() at the
very beginning of the de-offloading process so that rcu_core() won't
dismiss work while being preempted by the de-offloading process, at
least not without a pending subsequent rcu_core() that will quickly
catch up.
