call_rcu_core is only called from __call_rcu_common with interrupt
disabled. This patch thus removes the unreachable logic and the would-be
unused 'flags' parameter.

Nack.

call_rcu_core() receives a @flags parameter which are the _saved_ flags
as they were prior to local_irq_save().

This patch highlights a misunderstanding of what the code is actually
doing.

Thanks,

Mathieu
