Paolo Bonzini febd668d37 rcuwait: avoid lockdep splats from rcuwait_active() ...

rcuwait_active only returns whether w->task is not NULL.  This is
exactly one of the usecases that are mentioned in the documentation
for rcu_access_pointer() where it is correct to bypass lockdep checks.

This avoids a splat from kvm_vcpu_on_spin().
