The ever-evolving IS_ENABLED() macro is intended for CONFIG_* Kconfig
options, but rcuperf currently uses it for the decidedly non-CONFIG_*
MODULE macro. In the spirit of not inviting trouble, this commit
substitutes tried-and-true #ifdef.

Beyond a certain point in the CPU-hotplug offline process, timers get
stranded on the outgoing CPU, and won't fire until that CPU comes back
online, which might well be never. This commit therefore adds a hook
in torture_onoff_init() that is invoked from torture_offline(), which
rcutorture uses to occasionally wait for a grace period. This should
result in failures for RCU implementations that rely on stranded timers
eventually firing in the absence of the CPU coming back online.

This commit records grace periods in rcutorture's n_launders_hist[]
histogram, thus allowing rcu_torture_fwd_cb_hist() to print out the
elapsed number of grace periods between buckets. This information
helps to determine whether a lack of forward progress is due to stalled
grace periods on the one hand or due to sluggish callback invocation on
the other.

srcu_queue_delayed_work_on() disables preemption (and therefore CPU
hotplug in RCU's case) and then checks based on its own accounting if a
CPU is online. If the CPU is online it uses queue_delayed_work_on()
otherwise it fallbacks to queue_delayed_work().
The problem here is that queue_work() on -RT does not work with disabled
preemption.
queue_work_on() works also on an offlined CPU. queue_delayed_work_on()
has the problem that it is possible to program a timer on an offlined
CPU. This timer will fire once the CPU is online again. But until then,
the timer remains programmed and nothing will happen.
Add a local timer which will fire (as requested per delay) on the local
CPU and then enqueue the work on the specific CPU.
RCUtorture testing with SRCU-P for 24h showed no problems.

It turns out that it is queue_delayed_work_on() rather than
queue_work_on() that has difficulties when used concurrently with
CPU-hotplug removal operations. It is therefore unnecessary to protect
CPU identification and queue_work_on() with preempt_disable().
This commit therefore removes the preempt_disable() and preempt_enable()
from sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus(), which has the further benefit of reducing
the number of changes that must be maintained in the -rt patchset.

Although the name rcu_process_callbacks() still makes sense for Tiny
RCU, where most of what it does is invoke callbacks, it no longer makes
much sense for Tree RCU, especially given that the actually callback
invocation is relegated to rcu_do_batch(), or, for no-CBs CPUs, to the
rcuo kthreads. Especially in the latter case, rcu_process_callbacks()
has very little to do with actual callbacks. A better description of
this function is that it performs RCU's core processing.
This commit therefore changes the name of Tree RCU's rcu_process_callbacks()
function to rcu_core(), which also has the virtue of being consistent with
the existing invoke_rcu_core() function.
While in the area, the header comment is reworked.

The name rcu_check_callbacks() arguably made sense back in the early
2000s when RCU was quite a bit simpler than it is today, but it has
become quite misleading, especially with the advent of dyntick-idle
and NO_HZ_FULL. The rcu_check_callbacks() function is RCU's hook into
the scheduling-clock interrupt, and is now but one of many ways that
callbacks get promoted to invocable state.
This commit therefore changes the name to rcu_sched_clock_irq(),
which is the same number of characters and clearly indicates this
function's relation to the rest of the Linux kernel. In addition, for
the sake of consistency, rcu_flavor_check_callbacks() is also renamed
to rcu_flavor_sched_clock_irq().
While in the area, the header comments for both functions are reworked.

Currently, __note_gp_changes() checks to see if the rcu_node structure's
->gp_seq_needed is greater than or equal to that of the rcu_data
structure, and if so, updates the rcu_data structure's ->gp_seq_needed
field. This results in a useless store in the case where the two fields
are equal.
This commit therefore carries out this store only in the case where the
rcu_node structure's ->gp_seq_needed is strictly greater than that of
the rcu_data structure.
