Currently, for expedited rcu we only check 'rnp->exp_tasks', however
the 'rnp->exp_tasks' are not always exist for expedited grace period
that not end. this commit add 'rnp->expmask' condition.

For Paul to wordsmith this commit log, he must first understand why this
change is useful, keeping in mind that show_rcu_gp_kthreads() is invoked
for normal grace periods, but not for expedited ones.
The point of ->exp_mask for debugging forward-progress issues for normal
grace periods is to understand why tasks blocking the current normal
grace period are not yet being boosted (because the expedited grace
period's boosting takes precedence). How do these additions help you?
(Not saying that they cannot possibly help you. I am instead saying
that you must tell me how they have helped you guys.)
Thanx, Paul

Thanks !! for the patch.

Hi Paul
Oh sorry, I misunderstood, my previous understanding was only to get the status of the current grace period.
thank you for the explanation.
Thanks
