[PATCH rcu 6/9] osnoise: provide quiescent states

["Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@kernel.org>]

From: Ankur Arora <ankur.a.arora@oracle.com>

To reduce RCU noise for nohz_full configurations, osnoise depends
on cond_resched() providing quiescent states for PREEMPT_RCU=n
configurations. For PREEMPT_RCU=y configurations -- where
cond_resched() is a stub -- we do this by directly calling
rcu_momentary_eqs().

With (PREEMPT_LAZY=y, PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n), however, we have a
configuration with (PREEMPTION=y, PREEMPT_RCU=n) where neither
of the above can help.

Handle that by providing an explicit quiescent state here for all
configurations.

As mentioned above this is not needed for non-stubbed cond_resched(),
but, providing a quiescent state here just pulls in one that a future
cond_resched() would provide, so doesn't cause any extra work for
this configuration.
