[PATCH 14/16] rcu: Remove redundant checks for rcu_scheduler_fully_active

From: Pranith Kumar
Date: Wed Jul 23 2014 - 01:11:58 EST


rcu_scheduler_fully_active is set to true early in the boot process.

The check for this flag is only needed in rcu_prepare_kthreads() as this
function is called before the above flag is set. All other checks are redundant.
Hence this commit removes those redundant checks.
