Subject[PATCH 1/6] rcu/nocb: Remove rdp from nocb list when de-offloaded
Date
nocb_gp_wait() iterates all CPUs within the rcuog's group even if they
are have been de-offloaded. This is suboptimal if only few CPUs are
offloaded within the group. And this will become even more a problem
when a nocb kthread will be created for all possible CPUs in the future.

Therefore use a standard double linked list to link all the offloaded
rdps and safely add/del their nodes as we (de-)offloaded them.
