[ Upstream commit 46e861be589881e0905b9ade3d8439883858721c ]

The TASKS_RUDE_RCU does not select IRQ_WORK, which can result in build
failures for kernels that do not otherwise select IRQ_WORK.  This commit
therefore causes the TASKS_RUDE_RCU Kconfig option to select IRQ_WORK.

This commit moves from a bespoke head and tail pointer in the
rcu_tasks_percpu structure to an rcu_segcblist structure, thus allowing
associating the grace-period sequence number with groups of callbacks.
This in turn will allow callbacks to be invoked independently on
different CPUs.

All of the uses of CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ=y that I have seen involve
systems with RCU callbacks offloaded.  In this situation, all that this
Kconfig option does is slow down idle entry/exit with an additional
allways-taken early exit.  If this is the only use case, then this
Kconfig option nothing but an attractive nuisance that needs to go away.

This commit therefore removes the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ Kconfig option.

Tasks Trace RCU uses irq_work_queue() to safely awaken its grace-period
kthread, so this commit therefore causes the TASKS_TRACE_RCU Kconfig
option select the IRQ_WORK Kconfig option.

On PREEMPT_RT kernels, RCU callbacks are deferred to the `rcuc' kthread.
This can stall RCU grace periods due to lengthy preemption not only of RCU
readers but also of 'rcuc' kthreads, either of which prevent grace periods
from completing, which can in turn result in OOM.  Because PREEMPT_RT
kernels have more kthreads that can block grace periods, it is more
important for such kernels to enable RCU_BOOST.

This commit therefore makes RCU_BOOST the default on PREEMPT_RT.
RCU_BOOST can still be manually disabled if need be.

Because strict RCU grace periods will complete more quickly, they will
experience greater lock contention on each leaf rcu_node structure's
->lock.  This commit therefore reduces the leaf fanout in order to reduce
this lock contention.

Note that this also has the effect of reducing the number of CPUs
supported to 16 in the case of CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF=2 or 81 in the
case of CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF=3.  However, greater numbers of CPUs are
probably a bad idea when using CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y.  Those
wishing to live dangerously are free to edit their kernel/rcu/Kconfig
files accordingly.

This commit provides a new TASKS_TRACE_RCU_READ_MB Kconfig option that
enables use of read-side memory barriers by both rcu_read_lock_trace()
and rcu_read_unlock_trace() when the are executed with the
current->trc_reader_special.b.need_mb flag set.  This flag is currently
never set.  Doing that is the subject of a later commit.
