Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 10/21] rcu/nocb: Set SEGCBLIST_SOFTIRQ_ONLY at the very last stage of de-offloading

From: Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@...nel.org>

This commit sets SEGCBLIST_SOFTIRQ_ONLY once toggling is otherwise fully
complete, allowing further RCU callback manipulation to be carried out
locklessly and locally.
