rcu/nocb: Fix possible invalid rdp's->nocb_cb_kthread pointer access

Browse source

[ Upstream commit 1bba3900ca ]

In the preparation stage of CPU online, if the corresponding
the rdp's->nocb_cb_kthread does not exist, will be created,
there is a situation where the rdp's rcuop kthreads creation fails,
and then de-offload this CPU's rdp, does not assign this CPU's
rdp->nocb_cb_kthread pointer, but this rdp's->nocb_gp_rdp and
rdp's->rdp_gp->nocb_gp_kthread is still valid.

This will cause the subsequent re-offload operation of this offline
CPU, which will pass the conditional check and the kthread_unpark()
will access invalid rdp's->nocb_cb_kthread pointer.

This commit therefore use rdp's->nocb_gp_kthread instead of
rdp_gp's->nocb_gp_kthread for safety check.
