Sebastian Andrzej Siewior e81baf4cb1 srcu: Remove srcu_queue_delayed_work_on()
srcu_queue_delayed_work_on() disables preemption (and therefore CPU
hotplug in RCU's case) and then checks based on its own accounting if a
CPU is online. If the CPU is online it uses queue_delayed_work_on()
otherwise it fallbacks to queue_delayed_work().
The problem here is that queue_work() on -RT does not work with disabled
preemption.

queue_work_on() works also on an offlined CPU. queue_delayed_work_on()
has the problem that it is possible to program a timer on an offlined
CPU. This timer will fire once the CPU is online again. But until then,
the timer remains programmed and nothing will happen.

Add a local timer which will fire (as requested per delay) on the local
CPU and then enqueue the work on the specific CPU.

RCUtorture testing with SRCU-P for 24h showed no problems.
