The ->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.deferred_qs field is set to true in rcu_read_unlock_special() but never set to false. This is not particularly useful, so this commit removes this field. The only possible justification for this field is to ease debugging of RCU deferred quiscent states, but the combination of the other ->rcu_read_unlock_special fields plus ->rcu_blocked_node and of course ->rcu_read_lock_nesting should cover debugging needs. And if this last proves incorrect, this patch can always be reverted, along with the required setting of ->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.deferred_qs to false in rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore().

README
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
