As we need to defer RCU registration during secondary CPU bringup, so we
should avoid unnecessary early print during secondary CPU bringup, which
will trigger a false-positive lockdep"suspicious RCU usage" splat during
early lock acquisitions as commit ce3d31ad3cac ("arm64/smp: Move
rcu_cpu_starting() earlier") pointed out.
