[PATCH tip/core/rcu 3/4] rcu: Do not NMI offline CPUs

[paulmck]

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, RCU CPU stall warning messages will NMI whatever CPU looks
like it is blocking either the current grace period or the grace-period
kthread.  This can produce confusing output if the target CPU is offline.
This commit therefore checks for offline CPUs.
