rcu: Remove short-term CPU kicking

Browse source 
Commit 4914950aaa ("rcu: Stop treating in-kernel CPU-bound workloads
as errors") added a (relatively) short-timeout call to resched_cpu().
This was inspired by as issue that was fixed by b7e7ade34e ("sched/core:
Fix remote wakeups").  But given that this issue was fixed, it is time
for the current commit to remove this call to resched_cpu().
