rcu: Avoid waking up CPUs having only kfree_rcu() callbacks
When CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ is enabled, RCU will allow a given CPU to enter dyntick-idle mode even if it still has RCU callbacks queued. RCU avoids system hangs in this case by scheduling a timer for several jiffies in the future. However, if all of the callbacks on that CPU are from kfree_rcu(), there is no reason to wake the CPU up, as it is not a problem to defer freeing of memory. This commit therefore tracks the number of callbacks on a given CPU that are from kfree_rcu(), and avoids scheduling the timer if all of a given CPU's callbacks are from kfree_rcu().
