Since commit
fced9c8cfe6b ("rcu: Avoid resched_cpu() when rescheduling
the current CPU"), resched_cpu is not directly called from
sync_sched_exp_handler. Update the documentation about the same.

If the CPU is idle, then <tt>sync_sched_exp_handler()</tt> reports
the quiescent state.
-<p>
-Otherwise, the handler invokes <tt>resched_cpu()</tt>, which forces
-a future context switch.
+<p> Otherwise, the handler forces a future context switch by setting the
+NEED_RESCHED flag of the current task's thread flag and the CPU preempt
+counter.
At the time of the context switch, the CPU reports the quiescent state.
Should the CPU go offline first, it will report the quiescent state
at that time.
