rcu: Suppress RCU lockdep warnings during early boot

RCU is used during very early boot, before RCU and lockdep have
been initialized. So make the underlying primitives
(rcu_read_lock_held(), rcu_read_lock_bh_held(),
rcu_read_lock_sched_held(), and rcu_dereference_check()) check
for early boot via the rcu_scheduler_active flag. This will
suppress false positives.

Also introduce a debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() static inline
helper function, which tags the CONTINUE_PROVE_RCU case as
likely(), as suggested by Ingo Molnar.
