[PATCH 5/5] rcu/nocb: Initialize nocb kthreads only for boot CPU prior SMP initialization

[Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@kernel.org>]

rcu_spawn_gp_kthread() is called as an early initcall, which means that
SMP initialization hasn't happened yet and the boot CPU is the only one
online. Therefore only the NOCB kthreads related to the boot CPU need
to be created at this stage.
