Commit c0f4dfd4f (rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ take advantage of numbered
callbacks) introduced a bug that can result in excessively long grace
periods.  This bug reverse the senes of the "if" statement checking
for lazy callbacks, so that RCU takes a lazy approach when there are
in fact non-lazy callbacks.  This can result in excessive boot, suspend,
and resume times.

This commit therefore fixes the sense of this "if" statement.
