rcu: Update RCU_FAST_NO_HZ tracing for lazy callbacks
In the current code, a short dyntick-idle interval (where there is at least one non-lazy callback on the CPU) and a long dyntick-idle interval (where there are only lazy callbacks on the CPU) are traced identically, which can be less than helpful. This commit therefore emits different event traces in these two cases. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
