rcu/nocb: Prepare for fine-grained deferred wakeup
Tuning the deferred wakeup level must be done from a safe wakeup point. Currently those sites are: * ->nocb_timer * user/idle/guest entry * CPU down * softirq/rcuc All of these sites perform the wake up for both RCU_NOCB_WAKE and RCU_NOCB_WAKE_FORCE. In order to merge ->nocb_timer and ->nocb_bypass_timer together, we plan to add a new RCU_NOCB_WAKE_BYPASS that really should be deferred until a timer fires so that we don't wake up the NOCB-gp kthread too early. To prepare for that, this commit specifies the per-callsite wakeup level/limit.
