So this fixes some potential RCU stalls in a bunch of architectures.
When rcu_idle_enter()/rcu_idle_exit() became a requirement, we forgot
to handle the architectures that don't support CONFIG_NO_HZ.

I guess the set should be dispatched into arch maintainer trees.
I can take the m68k version, but are you sure you want it this way?
Each of them must be in mainline before they can enter stable.
I'm sorry I haven't built tested everywhere. But the changes are
small and need to be at least boot tested anyway.
Builds and boots fine on m68k under ARAnyM.
