SUNRPC: make rqst_should_sleep() idempotent()



Based on its name you would think that rqst_should_sleep() would be
read-only, not changing anything.  But in fact it will clear
SP_TASK_PENDING if that was set.  This is surprising, and it blurs the
line between "check for work to do" and "dequeue work to do".

So change the "test_and_clear" to simple "test" and clear the bit once
the thread has decided to wake up and return to the caller.

With this, it makes sense to *always* set SP_TASK_PENDING when asked,
rather than to set it only if no thread could be woken up.

[ cel: Previously TASK_PENDING indicated there is work waiting but no
idle threads were found to pick up that work. After this patch, it acts
as an XPT_BUSY flag for wake-ups that have no associated xprt. ]
