rcu: RCU_FAST_NO_HZ must check RCU dyntick state
The current version of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ reproduces the old CLASSIC_RCU
dyntick-idle bug, as it fails to detect CPUs that have interrupted
or NMIed out of dyntick-idle mode. Fix this by making rcu_needs_cpu()
check the state in the per-CPU rcu_dynticks variables, thus correctly
detecting the dyntick-idle state from an RCU perspective.
