[PATCH arm 1/1] arm: Use _rcuidle tracepoint to allow use from idle

Testing on ARM encountered the following pair of lockdep-RCU splats:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

===============================
[ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
4.6.0-rc4-next-20160422 #1 Not tainted
-------------------------------
include/trace/events/power.h:328 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

RCU used illegally from idle CPU!
rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!
no locks held by swapper/0/0.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

These are caused by event tracing from the idle loop. This commit
therefore adds the _rcuidle suffix to make RCU aware of this implicit
use of RCU by event tracing, thus preventing both splats.
