Currently, If the 'rcu_nocb_poll' bootargs is enable, all rcuog kthreads enter polling mode. however, due to only insert CPU's rdp which belong to rcu_nocb_mask to 'nocb_head_rdp' list or all CPU's rdp served by rcuog kthread have been de-offloaded, these cause the 'nocb_head_rdp' list served by rcuog kthread is empty, when the 'nocb_head_rdp' is empty, the rcuog kthread in polling mode not actually do anything. fix it by exiting polling mode when the 'nocb_head_rdp'list is empty, otherwise entering polling mode.
