Subject: [PATCH 00/11] rcu/nocb: (De-)offloading on offline CPUs

Last LPC's debates seem to have raised general agreement that nohz_full
cpusets interface should operate on offline CPUs to simplify the picture.
And since the only known future user of NOCB (de-)offloading is going
to be nohz_full cpusets, its transitions need to operate on offline
CPUs as well.

The good news is that it simplifies a bit the (de-)offloading code, as
the diffstat testifies.

Thanks.

  rcu/nocb: Assert no callbacks while nocb kthread allocation fails
  rcu/nocb: Introduce nocb mutex
  rcu/nocb: (De-)offload callbacks on offline CPUs only
  rcu/nocb: Remove halfway (de-)offloading handling from bypass
  rcu/nocb: Remove halfway (de-)offloading handling from rcu_core()'s QS
