rcu: Provide __rcu_is_watching()

Same as rcu_is_watching() but without the preempt_disable/enable() pair
inside the function. It is merked noinstr so it ends up in the
non-instrumentable text section.

This is useful for non-preemptible code especially in the low level entry
section. Using rcu_is_watching() there results in a call to the
preempt_schedule_notrace() thunk which triggers noinstr section warnings in
objtool.
