So I still can add it back and amend the changelog and comment:
Change the condition from !rcu_is_watching() to is_idle_task(current) ||
rcu_is_watching() which enforces that interrupts in the idle task
unconditionally invoke rcu_irq_enter() independent of the RCU state. For
most scenarios is_idle_task() would be sufficient but Task RCU needs it
according to Paul.
