rcu: RCU-based detection of stalled CPUs for Classic RCU 

This patch adds stalled-CPU detection to Classic RCU.  This capability
is enabled by a new config variable CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR, which
defaults disabled.

This is a debugging feature to detect infinite loops in kernel code, not
something that non-kernel-hackers would be expected to care about.

This feature can detect looping CPUs in !PREEMPT builds and looping CPUs
with preemption disabled in PREEMPT builds.  This is essentially a port of
this functionality from the treercu patch, replacing the stall debug patch
that is already in tip/core/rcu (commit 67182ae1c4).

The changes from the patch in tip/core/rcu include making the config
variable name match that in treercu, changing from seconds to jiffies to
avoid spurious warnings, and printing a boot message when this feature
is enabled.
