The WARN_ON() for timer_delete_sync() means that the caller forgot to
call srcu_barrier() before cleanup. however, it still can trigger even
when srcu_barrier() was properly called.

When a SRCU grace period ends and ss_state < SRCU_SIZE_BIG, the mask=~0
causes delay_work timer be queued on every online CPU regardless of
whether it's sdp->srcu_cblist has callbacks. srcu_barrier() only wait
srcu_barrier_head's callbacks to complete, however, the srcu_barrier_head
will not be inserted into an empty sdp->srcu_cblist. after that, when
cleanup_srcu_struct() finds a pending delay_work timer on a CPU with no
callbacks, triggering a false positive.

This commit therefore add rcu_segcblist_n_cbs() to WARN_ON(), make the
warning triggers only when the timer is still pending and there are actual
outstanding callbacks.

successfully deleted")
