rcu/nocb: Simplify (de-)offloading state machine


Now that the (de-)offloading process can only apply to offline CPUs,
there is no more concurrency between rcu_core and nocb kthreads. Also
the mutation now happens on empty queues.

Therefore the state machine can be reduced to a single bit called
SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED. Simplify the transition as follows:

* Upon offloading: queue the rdp to be added to the rcuog list and
  wait for the rcuog kthread to set the SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED bit. Unpark
  rcuo kthread.

* Upon de-offloading: Park rcuo kthread. Queue the rdp to be removed
  from the rcuog list and wait for the rcuog kthread to clear the
  SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED bit.
