Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 14/23] rcu: Remove now-unused rcu_state fields

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

Moving the RCU grace-period processing to a kthread and adjusting the
tracing resulted in two of the rcu_state structure's fields being unused.
This commit therefore removes them.
