rcu: Remove full memory barrier on RCU stall printout

RCU stall printout fetches the EQS state of a CPU with a preceding full
memory barrier. However there is nothing to order this read against at
this debugging stage. It is inherently racy when performed remotely.

Do a plain read instead.

This was the last user of rcu_dynticks_snap().
