Suggested rewrite for change log:
<wordsmithing>
Make pure NOCB code entrypoints (nocb_cb kthread, nocb_gp kthread, nocb
timers) unconditionally lock rdp->nocb_lock as they always execute in the
context of an offloaded rdp.

This prepares for future toggling of CPUs to/from callback's offloaded mode
where the offloaded state can change when rdp->nocb_lock is not held. We'll
still want the entrypoints to lock the rdp in any case.
</wordsmithing>

Also, can we inline rcu_nocb_lock_irqsave() into
do_nocb_deferred_wakeup_common() since that's the only user, and then delete
rcu_nocb_lock_irqsave() and the corresponding unlock? That would also remove
confusion about which API to use for nocb locking (i.e. whether to directly
acquire lock or call rcu_nocb_lock_irqsave()).
