In the worst case this work is postponed until the next rcu_pending() check that can take a jiffy to reach, which can be a problem in case of callbacks flooding. Solve that with invoking rcu_core() early in the de-offloading process. This way any work dismissed by an ongoing rcu_core() call fooled by a preempting deoffloading process will be caught up by a nearby future recall to rcu_core(), this time fully aware of the de-offloading state.
