When inovke rcu_report_qs_rdp(), if current CPU's rcu_data structure's ->
grpmask has not been cleared from the corresponding rcu_node structure's
->qsmask, after that will clear and report quiescent state, but in this
time, this also means that current grace period is not end, the current
grace period is ongoing, because the rcu_gp_in_progress() currently return
true, so for non-offloaded rdp, invoke rcu_accelerate_cbs() is impossible
to return true.

This commit therefore remove impossible rcu_gp_kthread_wake() calling.

Please also add a comment explaining why we don't expect to have
to wake up the GP kthread.
