BTW should  exit_tasks_rcu_start/stop() be defined as static inline stubs
whenever !CONFIG_TASKS_RCU ? Currently:

* if CONFIG_TASKS_RCU_GENERIC=n, the stubs are as usual (static inline)

* if CONFIG_TASKS_RCU_GENERIC=y && CONFIG_TASKS_RCU=n, then the stubs are
  defined as empty linked function (is the compiler smart enough to remove
  the empty call?)
