Subject: [PATCH V2 6/7] rcu: clear the special.b.need_qs in rcu_note_context_switch()

It is better to clear the special.b.need_qs when it is
replaced by special.b.blocked or it is really fulfill its
goal in rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore().

It makes rcu_qs() easier to be understood, and also prepares for
the percpu rcu_preempt_depth patch, which reqires rcu_special
bits to be clearred in irq-disable context.
