rcu/nocb: Remove NOCB deferred wakeup from rcutree_dead_cpu()

Browse source 
At CPU offline time, we must handle any pending wakeup for the nocb_gp
kthread linked to the outgoing CPU.

Now we are making sure of that twice:

1) From rcu_report_dead() when the outgoing CPU makes the very last
   local cleanups by itself before switching offline.

2) From rcutree_dead_cpu(). Here the offlining CPU has gone and is truly
   now offline. Another CPU takes care of post-portem cleaning up and
   check if the offline CPU had pending wakeup.

Both ways are fine but we have to choose one or the other because we
don't need to repeat that action. Simply benefit from cache locality
and keep only the first solution.
