When soft interrupt actions are called, they are passed a pointer to the
struct softirq action which contains the action's function pointer.

This pointer isn't useful, as the action callback already knows what
function it is. And since each callback handles a specific soft interrupt,
the callback also knows which soft interrupt number is running.

No soft interrupt action callback actually uses this parameter, so remove
it from the function pointer signature. This clarifies that soft interrupt
actions are global routines and makes it slightly cheaper to call them.

Because Tiny RCU is used only in kernels built with either
CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y or CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y, there has not been
any need for TINY RCU to explicitly disable preemption.  However, the
prospect of lazy preemption changes that, and preemption means that
the non-atomic increment in synchronize_rcu() can be preempted, with
the possibility that one of the increments is lost.  This could cause
failures for users of the APIs that poll RCU grace periods.

This commit therefore adds the needed preempt_disable() and
preempt_enable() call to Tiny RCU.

The TINY_RCU rcu_process_callbacks() function is only ever invoked from
a softirq handler, which means that BH is already disabled.  This commit
therefore removes the redundant local_bh_disable() and local_bh_ennable()
from this function.

In order for RCU Tasks to reliably maintain per-CPU lists of exiting
tasks, those lists must be initialized before it is possible for tasks
to exit, especially given that the boot CPU is not necessarily CPU 0
(an example being, powerpc kexec() kernels).  And at the time that
rcu_init_tasks_generic() is called, a task could potentially exit,
unconventional though that sort of thing might be.

This commit therefore moves the calls to cblist_init_generic() from
functions called from rcu_init_tasks_generic() to a new function named
tasks_cblist_init_generic() that is invoked from rcu_init().

This constituted a bug in a commit that never went to mainline, so
there is no need for any backporting to -stable.

When a structure containing an RCU callback rhp is (incorrectly) freed
and reallocated after rhp is passed to call_rcu(), it is not unusual for
rhp->func to be set to NULL. This defeats the debugging prints used by
__call_rcu_common() in kernels built with CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD=y,
which expect to identify the offending code using the identity of this
function.

And in kernels build without CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD=y, things
are even worse, as can be seen from this splat:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0
... ...
PC is at 0x0
LR is at rcu_do_batch+0x1c0/0x3b8
... ...

 (do_idle) from (cpu_startup_entry+0x18/0x20)
 (cpu_startup_entry) from (0xc01530)

This commit therefore adds calls to mem_dump_obj(rhp) to output some
information, for example:

  slab kmalloc-256 start ffff410c45019900 pointer offset 0 size 256

This provides the rough size of the memory block and the offset of the
rcu_head structure, which as least provides at least a few clues to help
locate the problem. If the problem is reproducible, additional slab
debugging can be enabled, for example, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y, which can
provide significantly more information.

Currently a kvfree_call_rcu() takes an offset within a structure as
a second parameter, so a helper such as a kvfree_rcu_arg_2() has to
convert rcu_head and a freed ptr to an offset in order to pass it. That
leads to an extra conversion on macro entry.

Instead of converting, refactor the code in way that a pointer that has
to be freed is passed directly to the kvfree_call_rcu().

This patch does not make any functional change and is transparent to
all kvfree_rcu() users.

Implement timer-based RCU callback batching (also known as lazy
callbacks). With this we save about 5-10% of power consumed due
to RCU requests that happen when system is lightly loaded or idle.

By default, all async callbacks (queued via call_rcu) are marked
lazy. An alternate API call_rcu_hurry() is provided for the few users,
for example synchronize_rcu(), that need the old behavior.

The batch is flushed whenever a certain amount of time has passed, or
the batch on a particular CPU grows too big. Also memory pressure will
flush it in a future patch.

To handle several corner cases automagically (such as rcu_barrier() and
hotplug), we re-use bypass lists which were originally introduced to
address lock contention, to handle lazy CBs as well. The bypass list
length has the lazy CB length included in it. A separate lazy CB length
counter is also introduced to keep track of the number of lazy CBs.

The get_completed_synchronize_rcu() and poll_state_synchronize_rcu()
APIs compress the combined expedited and normal grace-period states into a
single unsigned long, which conserves storage, but can miss grace periods
in certain cases involving overlapping normal and expedited grace periods.
Missing the occasional grace period is usually not a problem, but there
are use cases that care about each and every grace period.

This commit therefore adds the first members of the full-state RCU
grace-period polling API, namely the get_completed_synchronize_rcu_full()
and poll_state_synchronize_rcu_full() functions.  These use up to three
times the storage (rcu_gp_oldstate structure instead of unsigned long),
but which are guaranteed not to miss grace periods, at least in situations
where the single-CPU grace-period optimization does not apply.

Currently, only Tree RCU leaks callbacks setting when it detects a
duplicate call_rcu().  This commit causes Tiny RCU to also leak
callbacks in this situation.

Because this is Tiny RCU, kernel size is important:

1. CONFIG_TINY_RCU=y and CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD=n
   (Production kernel)

    Original:
    text      data      bss       dec       hex     filename
    26290663  20159823  15212544  61663030  3ace736 vmlinux

    With this commit:
    text      data      bss       dec       hex     filename
    26290663  20159823  15212544  61663030  3ace736 vmlinux

2. CONFIG_TINY_RCU=y and CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD=y
   (Debugging kernel)

    Original:
    text      data      bss       dec       hex     filename
    26291319  20160143  15212544  61664006  3aceb06 vmlinux

    With this commit:
    text      data      bss       dec       hex     filename
    26291319  20160431  15212544  61664294  3acec26 vmlinux

These results show that the kernel size is unchanged for production
kernels, as desired.
