cpuidle: lib/bug: Disable rcu_is_watching() during WARN/BUG
[ Upstream commit 5a5d7e9badd2cb8065db171961bd30bd3595e4b6 ]
In order to avoid WARN/BUG from generating nested or even recursive
warnings, force rcu_is_watching() true during
WARN/lockdep_rcu_suspicious().
Notably things like unwinding the stack can trigger rcu_dereference()
warnings, which then triggers more unwinding which then triggers more
warnings etc..
