The "nocb_bypass_timer" ends up calling wake_nocb_gp() which deletes the pending "nocb_timer" (note they are not the same timers) for the given rdp without resetting the matching state stored in nocb_defer wakeup.
As a result, a future call_rcu() on that rdp may be fooled and think the timer is armed when it's not, missing a deferred nocb_gp wakeup.
Fix this with resetting rdp->nocb_defer_wakeup when we disarm the timer.
