rcu: Move RCU grace-period cleanup into kthread 

As a first step towards allowing grace-period cleanup to be preemptible,
this commit moves the RCU grace-period cleanup into the same kthread
that is now used to initialize grace periods.  This is needed to keep
scheduling latency down to a dull roar.

[ paulmck: Get rid of stray spin_lock_irqsave() calls. ]
