[ Upstream commit a0982dfa03efca6c239c52cabebcea4afb93ea6b ]

The rcutorture test suite occasionally provokes a splat due to invoking
resched_cpu() on an offline CPU:

---[ end trace 26df9e5df4bba4ac ]---

This splat cannot be generated by expedited grace periods because they
always invoke resched_cpu() on the current CPU, which is good because
expedited grace periods require that resched_cpu() unconditionally
succeed.  However, other parts of RCU can tolerate resched_cpu() acting
as a no-op, at least as long as it doesn't happen too often.

This commit therefore makes resched_cpu() invoke resched_curr() only if
the CPU is either online or is the current CPU.
