rcu: Add fastpath bypassing funnel locking
In the common case, there will be only one expedited grace period in
the system at a given time, in which case it is not helpful to use
funnel locking. This commit therefore adds a fastpath that bypasses
funnel locking when the root ->exp_funnel_mutex is not held.
