[PATCH RFC idle] Make arm, sh, and x86 stop using RCU when idle

[Paul E. McKenney]

Hello!

RCU's shiny new diagnostics (thank you, Frederic!) for using RCU when idle
located a few problems in arm, sh, and x86.  This patch series contains
alleged fixes for these problems.  And they are real problems -- if RCU
believes that the CPU is idle, it is ignoring it.  Which means that the
idle CPU can say "rcu_read_lock()" all it like, but there will be no
useful effect.

I was tempted to break these up, but doing so is bad for bisectability.

							Thanx, Paul
