Pranith Kumar 83fe27ea53 rcu: Make SRCU optional by using CONFIG_SRCU
SRCU is not necessary to be compiled by default in all cases. For tinification
efforts not compiling SRCU unless necessary is desirable.

The current patch tries to make compiling SRCU optional by introducing a new
Kconfig option CONFIG_SRCU which is selected when any of the components making
use of SRCU are selected.

If we do not select CONFIG_SRCU, srcu.o will not be compiled at all.

Size of arch/powerpc/boot/zImage changes from

 829504   64180   23952  917636   e0084 arch/powerpc/boot/zImage : after

so the savings are about ~2000 bytes.
