rcu: Remove dead code from force_qs_rnp()
Because force_qs_rnp() is invoked only from the force-quiescent-state code which runs only in the context of the grace-period kthread, a grace period must always be in progress throughout force_qs_rnp()'s execution. This commit therefore removes the rcu_gp_in_progress() check and the associated dead code. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
