sched,rcu: Make cond_resched() provide RCU quiescent state
There is some confusion as to which of cond_resched() or cond_resched_rcu_qs() should be added to long in-kernel loops. This commit therefore eliminates the decision by adding RCU quiescent states to cond_resched(). This commit also simplifies the code that used to interact with cond_resched_rcu_qs(), and that now interacts with cond_resched(), to reduce its overhead. This reduction is necessary to allow the heavier-weight cond_resched_rcu_qs() mechanism to be invoked everywhere that cond_resched() is invoked. Part of that reduction in overhead converts the jiffies_till_sched_qs kernel parameter to read-only at runtime, thus eliminating the need for bounds checking.
