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 find that the allocation of srcu_node
tree has been completed, but the ss_state is still less than SRCU_SIZE_BIG,
the mask=~0 causes delay_work timer be queued on every CPU which has
been online regardless of whether it's sdp->srcu_cblist has callbacks.
the 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")
