rcu: Apply results of code inspection of kernel/rcutree_plugin.h
o Drop the calls to cpu_quiet() from the online/offline code. These are unnecessary, since force_quiescent_state() will clean up, and removing them simplifies the code a bit. o Add a warning to check that we don't enqueue the same blocked task twice onto the ->blocked_tasks[] lists. o Rework the phase computation in rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() to be more readable, as suggested by Josh Triplett. o Disable irqs to close a race between the scheduling clock interrupt and rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() WRT the ->rcu_read_unlock_special field. o Add comments to rnp->lock acquisition and release within rcu_read_unlock_special() noting that irqs are already disabled.
