rcu/tree: Add a warning if CPU being onlined did not report QS already

Currently, rcu_cpu_starting() checks to see if the RCU core expects a
quiescent state from the incoming CPU.  However, the current interaction
between RCU quiescent-state reporting and CPU-hotplug operations should
mean that the incoming CPU never needs to report a quiescent state.
First, the outgoing CPU reports a quiescent state if needed.  Second,
the race where the CPU is leaving just as RCU is initializing a new
grace period is handled by an explicit check for this condition.  Third,
the CPU's leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock serializes these checks.

This means that if rcu_cpu_starting() ever feels the need to report
a quiescent state, then there is a bug somewhere in the CPU hotplug
code or the RCU grace-period handling code.  This commit therefore
adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() to bring that bug to everyone's attention.
