RFC PATCH 1/2 Eliminate redundant rcu_sysidle_state variable

Now that we have rcu_state_p, which references rcu_preempt_state for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU and rcu_sched_state for TREE_RCU, we don't need a separate rcu_sysidle_state variable. This commit therefore eliminates rcu_preempt_state in favor of rcu_state_p.

RFC PATCH 2/2 Don't track sysidle state if no nohz_full= CPUs

If there are no nohz_full= CPUs, then there is currently no reason to track sysidle state. This commit therefore short-circuits this state tracking if !tick_nohz_full_enabled().

Note that these checks will need to be revisited if nohz_full= state can ever be changed at runtime.
