rcu: Discard separate per-CPU callback counts

Browse source 
Back when there were multiple flavors of RCU, it was necessary to
separately count lazy and non-lazy callbacks for each CPU.  These counts
were used in CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ kernels to determine how long a newly
idle CPU should be allowed to sleep before handling its RCU callbacks.
But now that there is only one flavor, the callback counts for a given
CPU's sole rcu_data structure are the counts for that CPU.

This commit therefore removes the rcu_data structure's ->nonlazy_posted
and ->nonlazy_posted_snap fields, the rcu_idle_count_callbacks_posted()
and rcu_cpu_has_callbacks() functions, repurposes the rcu_data structure's
->all_lazy field to record the laziness state at the beginning of the
latest idle sojourn, and modifies CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ RCU CPU stall
warnings accordingly.

@ -219,17 +219,18 @@ an estimate of the total number of RCU callbacks queued across all CPUs
In kernels with CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ, more information is printed
for each CPU:
0: (64628 ticks this GP) idle=dd5/3fffffffffffffff/0 softirq=82/543 last_accelerate: a345/d342 nonlazy_posted: 25 .D
0: (64628 ticks this GP) idle=dd5/3fffffffffffffff/0 softirq=82/543 last_accelerate: a345/d342 Nonlazy posted: ..D
The "last_accelerate:" prints the low-order 16 bits (in hex) of the
jiffies counter when this CPU last invoked rcu_try_advance_all_cbs()
from rcu_needs_cpu() or last invoked rcu_accelerate_cbs() from
rcu_prepare_for_idle(). The "nonlazy_posted:" prints the number
of non-lazy callbacks posted since the last call to rcu_needs_cpu().
Finally, an "L" indicates that there are currently no non-lazy callbacks
("." is printed otherwise, as shown above) and "D" indicates that
dyntick-idle processing is enabled ("." is printed otherwise, for example,
if disabled via the "nohz=" kernel boot parameter).
rcu_prepare_for_idle(). The "Nonlazy posted:" indicates lazy-callback
status, so that an "l" indicates that all callbacks were lazy at the start
of the last idle period and an "L" indicates that there are currently
no non-lazy callbacks (in both cases, "." is printed otherwise, as
shown above) and "D" indicates that dyntick-idle processing is enabled
("." is printed otherwise, for example, if disabled via the "nohz="
kernel boot parameter).
If the grace period ends just as the stall warning starts printing,
there will be a spurious stall-warning message, which will include
