[PATCH 08/11] rcu/nocb: Remove halfway (de-)offloading handling from rcu_core

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Thu May 30 2024 - 09:48:46 EST


RCU core can't be running anymore while in the middle of (de-)offloading
since this sort of transition now only applies to offline CPUs.

The locked callback acceleration handling during the transition can
therefore be removed, along with concurrent batch execution.
