This commit adds task-print ability to the expedited RCU CPU stall

This commit makes the RCU CPU stall warning message print online/offline
indications immediately after the CPU number. A "O" indicates global
offline, a "." global online, and a "o" indicates RCU believes that the
CPU is offline for the current grace period and "." otherwise, and an
"N" indicates that RCU believes that the CPU will be offline for the
next grace period, and "." otherwise, all right after the CPU number.
So for CPU 10, you would normally see "10-...:" indicating that everything
believes that the CPU is online.

This reverts commit af859beaab (rcu: Silence lockdep false positive
for expedited grace periods). Because synchronize_rcu_expedited()
no longer invokes synchronize_sched_expedited(), ->exp_funnel_mutex
acquisition is no longer nested, so the false positive no longer happens.
This commit therefore removes the extra lockdep data structures, as they
are no longer needed.
This commit switches synchronize_sched_expedited() from stop_one_cpu_nowait()
to smp_call_function_single(), thus moving from an IPI and a pair of
context switches to an IPI and a single pass through the scheduler.
Of course, if the scheduler actually does decide to switch to a different
task, there will still be a pair of context switches, but there would
likely have been a pair of context switches anyway, just a bit later.

2. Change rcu_sync_is_idle() to return rsp->gp_state == GP_IDLE

Note: rcu_sync_enter()->wait_event(gp_state == GP_PASSED) needs

this needs some simple preparations in the core RCU code to avoid the

Currently down_write/up_write calls synchronize_sched_expedited()

Of course, a single down_write() will take more time, but otoh it

The rcu_sync infrastructure can be thought of as infrastructure to be
used to implement reader-writer primitives having extremely lightweight
readers during times when there are no writers. The first use is in
the percpu_rwsem used by the VFS subsystem.
This infrastructure is functionally equivalent to
struct rcu_sync_struct {
atomic_t counter;
};
/* Check possibility of fast-path read-side operations. */
static inline bool rcu_sync_is_idle(struct rcu_sync_struct *rss)
{
return atomic_read(&rss->counter) == 0;
}
/* Tell readers to use slowpaths. */
static inline void rcu_sync_enter(struct rcu_sync_struct *rss)
{
atomic_inc(&rss->counter);
synchronize_sched();
}
/* Allow readers to once again use fastpaths. */
static inline void rcu_sync_exit(struct rcu_sync_struct *rss)
{
synchronize_sched();
atomic_dec(&rss->counter);
}
The main difference is that it records the state and only calls
synchronize_sched() if required. At least some of the calls to
synchronize_sched() will be optimized away when rcu_sync_enter() and
rcu_sync_exit() are invoked repeatedly in quick succession.

Real time mutexes is one of the few general primitives
that we do not have in locktorture. Address this -- a few
considerations:
o To spice things up, enable competing thread(s) to become
rt, such that we can stress different prio boosting paths
in the rtmutex code. Introduce a ->task_boost callback,
only used by rtmutex-torturer. Tasks will boost/deboost
around every 50k (arbitrarily) lock/unlock operations.
o Hold times are similar to what we have for other locks:
only occasionally having longer hold times (per ~200k ops).
So we roughly do two full rt boost+deboosting ops with
short hold times.

Because preempt_disable() maps to barrier() for non-debug builds,
it forces the compiler to spill and reload registers. Because Tree
RCU and Tiny RCU now only appear in CONFIG_PREEMPT=n builds, these
barrier() instances generate needless extra code for each instance of
rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock(). This extra code slows down Tree
RCU and bloats Tiny RCU.
This commit therefore removes the preempt_disable() and preempt_enable()
from the non-preemptible implementations of __rcu_read_lock() and
__rcu_read_unlock(), respectively. However, for debug purposes,
preempt_disable() and preempt_enable() are still invoked if
CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=y, because this allows detection of sleeping inside
atomic sections in non-preemptible kernels.
However, Tiny and Tree RCU operates by coalescing all RCU read-side
critical sections on a given CPU that lie between successive quiescent
states. It is therefore necessary to compensate for removing barriers
from __rcu_read_lock() and __rcu_read_unlock() by adding them to a
couple of the RCU functions invoked during quiescent states, namely to
rcu_all_qs() and rcu_note_context_switch(). However, note that the latter
is more paranoia than necessity, at least until link-time optimizations
become more aggressive.
This is based on an earlier patch by Paul E. McKenney, fixing
a bug encountered in kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT=n and
CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=y.

This alternative patch solves the problem by not calling
sched_info_{de,}queued() in {de,en}queue_task(). Therefore the
sched_info state is preserved and things work as expected.
By inlining the {de,en}queue_task() functions the new condition
becomes (mostly) a compile-time constant and we'll not emit any new
branch instructions.
It even shrinks the code (due to inlining {en,de}queue_task()):

Assuming units of PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET for preempt_count() numbers.
Now that TASK_DEAD no longer results in preempt_count() == 3 during
scheduling, we will always call context_switch() with preempt_count()
== 2.
However, we don't always end up with preempt_count() == 2 in
finish_task_switch() because new tasks get created with
preempt_count() == 1.
Create FORK_PREEMPT_COUNT and set it to 2 and use that in the right
places. Note that we cannot use INIT_PREEMPT_COUNT as that serves
another purpose (boot).
After this, preempt_count() is invariant across the context switch,
with exception of PREEMPT_ACTIVE.
