rcu: Fix cpustart tracepoint gp_seq number
The "cpustart" trace event shows a stale gp_seq. This is because it uses rdp->gp_seq, which is updated only at the end of the __note_gp_changes() function. This commit therefore instead uses rnp->gp_seq. An alternative fix would be to update rdp->gp_seq earlier, but this would break RCU's detection of the beginning of a new-to-this-CPU grace period.
