rcu: Don't set nesting depth negative in rcu_preempt_deferred_qs()
Now that RCU flavors have been consolidated, an RCU-preempt rcu_read_unlock() in an interrupt or softirq handler cannot possibly end the RCU read-side critical section. Consider the old vulnerability involving rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() being invoked within such a handler that interrupted an extended RCU read-side critical section, in which a wakeup might be invoked with a scheduler lock held. Because rcu_read_unlock_special() no longer does wakeups in such situations, it is no longer necessary for rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() to set the nesting level negative. This commit therefore removes this recursion-protection code from rcu_preempt_deferred_qs().
