This commit narrows the scope of each bucket of the forward-progress
callback-invocation histograms from one second to 100 milliseconds, which
aids debugging of forward-progress problems by making shorter-duration
callback-invocation stalls visible.

This commit causes the OOM handler to do rcu_barrier() calls and to
free up forward-progress callbacks in order to recover from OOM events.
The current test is terminated, but subsequent forward-progress tests can
proceed. This allows a long test to result in multiple forward-progress
failures, greatly reducing the required testing time.

If rcutorture's forward-progress tests fail while a grace period is not
in progress, it is useful to print the time since the last grace period
ended as a way to detect failure to launch a new grace period. This
commit therefore makes this change.

One reason why a forward-progress test might fail would be if something
prevented or delayed callback invocation. This commit therefore adds a

The RCU CPU stall warnings print an estimate of the total number of
RCU callbacks queued in the system, but this estimate leaves out
the callbacks queued for nocbs CPUs. This commit therefore introduces
rcu_get_n_cbs_cpu(), which gives an accurate callback estimate for
both nocbs and normal CPUs, and uses this new function as needed.
This commit also introduces a rcu_get_n_cbs_nocb_cpu() helper function
that returns the number of callbacks for nocbs CPUs or zero otherwise,
and also uses this function in place of direct access to ->nocb_q_count
while in the area (fewer characters, you see).

This commit adds an OOM notifier during rcutorture forward-progress

Because rcutorture's forward-progress checking will trigger from an

Remove return variables (declared as "ret") in cases where,
depending on whether a condition evaluates as true, the result of a
function call can be immediately returned instead of storing the result in
the return variable. When the condition evaluates as false, the constant
initially stored in the return variable at declaration is returned instead.

This commit splits rcu_torture_fwd_prog_nr() and rcu_torture_fwd_prog_cr()
functions out of rcu_torture_fwd_prog() in order to reduce indentation
pain and because rcu_torture_fwd_prog() was getting a bit too long.
In addition, this will enable easier conditional execution of the
rcu_torture_fwd_prog_cr() function, which can give false-positive
failures in some NO_HZ_FULL configurations due to overloading the
housekeeping CPUs.

Now that the forward-progress code does a full-bore continuous callback
flood lasting multiple seconds, there is little point in also posting a
mere 60,000 callbacks every second or so. This commit therefore removes
the old cbflood testing. Over time, it may be desirable to concurrently
do full-bore continuous callback floods on all CPUs simultaneously, but
one dragon at a time.

Currently, the torture scripts rely on the initrd/init script to bring
any extra CPUs online, for example, in the case where the kernel and
qemu have different ideas about how many CPUs are present. This works,
but is an unnecessary dependency on initrd, which needs to vary depending
on the distro. This commit therefore causes torture_onoff() to check
for additional CPUs, attempting to bring any found online. Errors are
ignored, just as they are by the initrd/init script.

This commit adds a call_rcu() flooding loop to the forward-progress test.
This emulates tight userspace loops that force call_rcu() invocations,
for example, the infamous loop containing close(open()) that instigated
the addition of blimit. If RCU does not make sufficient forward progress
in invoking the resulting flood of callbacks, rcutorture emits a warning.

In RCU, the distinction between "rsp", "rnp", and "rdp" has served well
for a great many years, but in SRCU, "sp" vs. "sdp" has proven confusing.
This commit therefore renames SRCU's "sp" pointers to "ssp", so that there
is "ssp" for srcu_struct pointer, "snp" for srcu_node pointer, and "sdp"
for srcu_data pointer.

The srcu_gp_start() function is called with the srcu_struct structure's
->lock held, but not with the srcu_data structure's ->lock. This is
problematic because this function accesses and updates the srcu_data
structure's ->srcu_cblist, which is protected by that lock. Failing to
hold this lock can result in corruption of the SRCU callback lists,
which in turn can result in arbitrarily bad results.
This commit therefore makes srcu_gp_start() acquire the srcu_data
structure's ->lock across the calls to rcu_segcblist_advance() and
rcu_segcblist_accelerate(), thus preventing this corruption.
