rcu: Eliminate local variable lastcomp from force_quiescent_state()

Because rsp->fqs_active is set to 1 across force_quiescent_state()'s switch statement, rcu_start_gp() will refrain from starting a new grace period during this time. Therefore, rsp->gpnum is constant, and can be propagated to all uses of lastcomp, eliminating this local variable. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
