Since kprobe itself depends on RCU, probing on RCU debug
routine can cause recursive breakpoint bugs.

Prohibit probing on RCU debug routines.

The update.c file has a number of calls to BUG_ON(), which panics the
kernel, which is not a good strategy for devices (like embedded) that
don't have a way to capture console output.  This commit therefore
converts these BUG_ON() calls to WARN_ON_ONCE() and WARN_ONCE().

Now that synchronize_rcu() waits for both RCU read-side critical
sections and preempt-disabled regions of code, the sole caller of
synchronize_rcu_mult() can be replaced by synchronize_rcu().
This patch makes this change and removes synchronize_rcu_mult().
Note that _wait_rcu_gp() still supports synchronize_rcu_mult(),
and thus might be simplified in the future to take only take
a single call_rcu() function rather than the current list of them.

Event tracing is moving to SRCU in order to take advantage of the fact
that SRCU may be safely used from idle and even offline CPUs.  However,
event tracing can invoke call_srcu() very early in the boot process,
even before workqueue_init_early() is invoked (let alone rcu_init()).
Therefore, call_srcu()'s attempts to queue work fail miserably.

This commit therefore detects this situation, and refrains from attempting
to queue work before rcu_init() time, but does everything else that it
would have done, and in addition, adds the srcu_struct to a global list.
The rcu_init() function now invokes a new srcu_init() function, which
is empty if CONFIG_SRCU=n.  Otherwise, srcu_init() queues work for
each srcu_struct on the list.  This all happens early enough in boot
that there is but a single CPU with interrupts disabled, which allows
synchronization to be dispensed with.

Of course, the queued work won't actually be invoked until after
workqueue_init() is invoked, which happens shortly after the scheduler
is up and running.  This means that although call_srcu() may be invoked
any time after per-CPU variables have been set up, there is still a very
narrow window when synchronize_srcu() won't work, and this window
extends from the time that the scheduler starts until the time that
workqueue_init() returns.  This can be fixed in a manner similar to
the fix for synchronize_rcu_expedited() and friends, but until someone
actually needs to use synchronize_srcu() during this window, this fix
is added churn for no benefit.

Finally, note that Tree SRCU's new srcu_init() function invokes
queue_work() rather than the queue_delayed_work() function that is
invoked post-boot.  The reason is that queue_delayed_work() will (as you
would expect) post a timer, and timers have not yet been initialized.
So use of queue_work() avoids the complaints about use of uninitialized
spinlocks that would otherwise result.  Besides, some delay is already
provide by the aforementioned fact that the queued work won't actually
be invoked until after the scheduler is up and running.

Now that the RCU-bh and RCU-sched update-side functions are simple
wrappers around their RCU counterparts, there isn't a whole lot of
point in testing them.  This commit therefore removes the self-test
capability and removes the corresponding kernel-boot parameters.
It also updates the various rcutorture .boot files to remove the
kernel boot parameters that call for testing RCU-bh and RCU-sched.
