This commit reduces the latency of expedited RCU grace periods by reporting a quiescent state for the CPU at context-switch time. In CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels, if the outgoing task is still within an RCU read-side critical section (and thus still blocking some grace period, perhaps including this expedited grace period), then that task will already have been placed on one of the leaf rcu_node structures' ->blkd_tasks list.
