rcu: Segregate rcu_state fields to improve cache locality
The fields in the rcu_state structure that are protected by the root rcu_node structure's ->lock can share a cache line with the fields protected by ->onofflock. This can result in excessive memory contention on large systems, so this commit applies ____cacheline_internodealigned_in_smp to the ->onofflock field in order to segregate them.
