Paul E. McKenney c682db558e rcutorture: Add trivial RCU implementation
I have been showing off a trivial RCU implementation for non-preemptive
environments for some time now:

	#define rcu_read_lock()
	#define rcu_read_unlock()
	#define rcu_dereference(p) READ_ONCE(p)
	#define rcu_assign_pointer(p, v) smp_store_release(&(p), (v))
	void synchronize_rcu(void)
	{
	int cpu;
		for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
			sched_setaffinity(current->pid, cpumask_of(cpu));
	}

Trivial or not, as the old saying goes, "if it ain't tested, it don't
work!".  This commit therefore adds a "trivial" flavor to rcutorture
and a corresponding TRIVIAL test scenario.  This variant does not handle
CPU hotplug, which is unconditionally enabled on x86 for post-v5.1-rc3
kernels, which is why the TRIVIAL.boot says "rcutorture.onoff_interval=0".
This commit actually does handle CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels, but only
because it turns back the Linux-kernel clock in order to provide these
alternative definitions (or the moral equivalent thereof):

	#define rcu_read_lock() preempt_disable()
	#define rcu_read_unlock() preempt_enable()

In CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels without debugging, these are equivalent to
empty macros give or take a compiler barrier.  However, the have been
successfully tested with actual empty macros as well.
