[PATCH v2] rcu/segcblist: Use WRITE_ONCE() for rclp->len decrement

[Kaushlendra Kumar]

Use WRITE_ONCE() for rclp->len decrement in rcu_cblist_dequeue() to
maintain consistency with rcu_cblist_enqueue(), which already uses
WRITE_ONCE() for rclp->len increment. It maintains consistent access
patterns to the rclp->len field across both enqueue and dequeue operations.

Changes in v2:
- Revised justification to focus on code consistency rather than
  concurrent access claims.
- Revised commit message to use imperative mood throughout per kernel
  documentation guidelines (suggested by Markus Elfring).
