Subject: [Patch v2] rcu: simplify the calculation of rcu_state.ncpus

There is only 1 bit set in mask, which means the difference between
oldmask and the new one would be at the position where the bit is set in
mask.

Based on this knowledge, rcu_state.ncpus could be calculated by checking
whether mask is already set in rnp->expmaskinitnext.

Signed-off-by: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang@...il.com>

v2:
  * trivial adjust based on Paul's suggestion.
