[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.2 027/185] rcu/tree: Call setschedule() gp ktread to SCHED_FIFO outside of atomic region

[ Upstream commit 1a763fd7c6335e3122c1cc09576ef6c99ada4267 ]
sched_setscheduler() needs to acquire cpuset_rwsem, but it is currently
called from an invalid (atomic) context by rcu_spawn_gp_kthread().
Fix that by simply moving sched_setscheduler_nocheck() call outside of
the atomic region, as it doesn't actually require to be guarded by
rcu_node lock.
