[PATCH] rcu: fix hotplug-cpu ->donelist leak

Pointed out by Srivatsa Vaddagiri <vatsa@in.ibm.com>.

rcu_do_batch() stops after processing maxbatch callbacks
on ->donelist leaving rcu_tasklet in TASKLET_STATE_SCHED
state.

If CPU_DEAD event happens remaining ->donelist entries are
lost, rcu_offline_cpu() kills this tasklet.

With this patch ->donelist migrates along with ->curlist
and ->nxtlist to the current cpu.

Compile tested.
