rcu: Avoid IPIing idle CPUs from synchronize_sched_expedited()
Currently, synchronize_sched_expedited() sends IPIs to all online CPUs,
even those that are idle or executing in nohz_full= userspace. Because
idle CPUs and nohz_full= userspace CPUs are in extended quiescent states,
there is no need to IPI them in the first place. This commit therefore
avoids IPIing CPUs that are already in extended quiescent states.
