There is a need for a non-blocking polling interface for RCU grace
periods, so this commit supplies start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and
poll_state_synchronize_rcu() for this purpose.  Note that the existing
get_state_synchronize_rcu() may be used if future grace periods are
inevitable (perhaps due to a later call_rcu() invocation).  The new
start_poll_synchronize_rcu() is to be used if future grace periods
might not otherwise happen.  Finally, poll_state_synchronize_rcu()
provides a lockless check for a grace period having elapsed since
the corresponding call to either of the get_state_synchronize_rcu()
or start_poll_synchronize_rcu().

As with get_state_synchronize_rcu(), the return value from either
get_state_synchronize_rcu() or start_poll_synchronize_rcu() is passed in
to a later call to either poll_state_synchronize_rcu() or the existing
(might_sleep) cond_synchronize_rcu().

Currently, accessing /proc/cpuinfo sends IPIs to idle CPUs in order to
learn their clock frequency.  Which is a bit strange, given that waking
them from idle likely significantly changes their clock frequency.
This commit therefore avoids sending /proc/cpuinfo-induced IPIs to
idle CPUs.

The x86/entry work removed all uses of __rcu_is_watching(), therefore
this commit removes it entirely.

The following changes are introduced:

1. Rename rcu_invoke_kfree_callback() to rcu_invoke_kvfree_callback(),
as well as the associated trace events, so the rcu_kfree_callback(),
becomes rcu_kvfree_callback(). The reason is to be aligned with kvfree()
notation.

2. Rename __is_kfree_rcu_offset to __is_kvfree_rcu_offset. All RCU
paths use kvfree() now instead of kfree(), thus rename it.

3. Rename kfree_call_rcu() to the kvfree_call_rcu(). The reason is,
it is capable of freeing vmalloc() memory now. Do the same with
__kfree_rcu() macro, it becomes __kvfree_rcu(), the goal is the
same.

Same as rcu_is_watching() but without the preempt_disable/enable() pair
inside the function. It is merked noinstr so it ends up in the
non-instrumentable text section.

This is useful for non-preemptible code especially in the low level entry
section. Using rcu_is_watching() there results in a call to the
preempt_schedule_notrace() thunk which triggers noinstr section warnings in
objtool.

Interrupts and exceptions invoke rcu_irq_enter() on entry and need to
invoke rcu_irq_exit() before they either return to the interrupted code or
invoke the scheduler due to preemption.

The general assumption is that RCU idle code has to have preemption
disabled so that a return from interrupt cannot schedule. So the return
from interrupt code invokes rcu_irq_exit() and preempt_schedule_irq().

If there is any imbalance in the rcu_irq/nmi* invocations or RCU idle code
had preemption enabled then this goes unnoticed until the CPU goes idle or
some other RCU check is executed.

Provide rcu_irq_exit_preempt() which can be invoked from the
interrupt/exception return code in case that preemption is enabled. It
invokes rcu_irq_exit() and contains a few sanity checks in case that
CONFIG_PROVE_RCU is enabled to catch such issues directly.

This commit adds rcu_gp_might_be_stalled(), which returns true if there
is some reason to believe that the RCU grace period is stalled.  The use
case is where an RCU free-memory path needs to allocate memory in order
to free it, a situation that should be avoided where possible.

But where it is necessary, there is always the alternative of using
synchronize_rcu() to wait for a grace period in order to avoid the
allocation.  And if the grace period is stalled, allocating memory to
asynchronously wait for it is a bad idea of epic proportions: Far better
to let others use the memory, because these others might actually be
able to free that memory before the grace period ends.

Thus, rcu_gp_might_be_stalled() can be used to help decide whether
allocating memory on an RCU free path is a semi-reasonable course
of action.

Some larger systems can take in excess of 50 seconds to complete their
early boot initcalls prior to spawing init.  This does not in any way
help the forward-progress judgments of built-in rcutorture (when
rcutorture is built as a module, the insmod or modprobe command normally
cannot happen until some time after boot completes).  This commit
therefore suppresses such complaints until about the time that init
is spawned.

This also includes a fix to a stupid error located by kbuild test robot.
