Fair point, thank you!  I have queued this one for further review and
testing, with the usual wordsmithing shown below.

                                                        Thanx, Paul

    rcu/nocb: Rename nocb_gp_update_state to nocb_gp_update_state_deoffloading
    
    The name nocb_gp_update_state() is unenlightening, so this commit changes
    it to nocb_gp_update_state_deoffloading().  This function now does what
    its name says, updates state and returns true if the CPU corresponding to
    the specified rcu_data structure is in the process of being de-offloaded.
