If a softirq is pending, the current CPU has RCU callbacks pending,
and RCU does not immediately need anything from this CPU, then the
current code resets the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ state machine.  This means that
upon exit from the subsequent softirq handler, RCU_FAST_NO_HZ will
try really hard to force RCU into dyntick-idle mode.  And if the same
conditions hold after a few tries (determined by RCU_IDLE_OPT_FLUSHES),
the same situation can repeat, possibly endlessly.  This scenario is
not particularly good for battery lifetime.

This commit therefore suppresses the early exit from the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ
state machine in the case where there is a softirq pending.  This change
forces the state machine to retain its memory, and to enter holdoff if
this condition persists.
