rcu: Fix late wakeup when flush of bypass cblist happens
When the bypass cblist gets too big or its timeout has occurred, it is
flushed into the main cblist. However, the bypass timer is still running
and the behavior is that it would eventually expire and wake the GP
thread.
Since we are going to use the bypass cblist for lazy CBs, do the wakeup
soon as the flush for "too big or too long" bypass list happens.
Otherwise, long delays can happen for callbacks which get promoted from
lazy to non-lazy.
This is a good thing to do anyway (regardless of future lazy patches),
since it makes the behavior consistent with behavior of other code paths
where flushing into the ->cblist makes the GP kthread into a
non-sleeping state quickly.
[ Frederic Weisbecker: Changes to avoid unnecessary GP-thread wakeups plus
comment changes. ]
