rcu: Apply callbacks processing time limit only on softirq

Time limit only makes sense when callbacks are serviced in softirq mode
because:

_ In case we need to get back to the scheduler,
  cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() is called after each callback.

_ In case some other softirq vector needs the CPU, the call to
  local_bh_enable() before cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() takes care about
  them via a call to do_softirq().

Therefore, make sure the time limit only applies to softirq mode.
