dc86460e77 rcutorture: Add CFcommon.arch for arch-specific Kconfig options
Add CFcommon.arch for arch-specific Kconfig options.

In accordance with [1], [2] and [3], move the x86-specific kernel option
CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST to CFcommon.i686 and CFcommon.x86_64, and also
move the x86/PowerPC CONFIG_KVM_GUEST Kconfig option to CFcommon.i686,
CFcommon.x86_64, and CFcommon.ppc64le.

The "arch" in CFcommon.arch is taken from the "uname -m" command.

Tested in x86_64 and PPC VM of Open Source Lab of Oregon State University.

a144935cea rcutorture: Set KCSAN Kconfig options to detect more data races
This commit enables the KCSAN Kconfig options that (1) detect data
races between reads and writes even when the writes do not change the
variable's value and (2) detect data races involving plain C-language
writes.  These changes only affect scripted rcutorture runs and can be
overridden using the kvm.sh --kconfig argument.

a6fda6dab9 rcutorture: Tweak kvm options
In one of my rcutorture tests the TSC clocksource got marked unstable
due to a large difference in the TSC value. I'm not sure if the guest
run for a long time with disabled interrupts or if the host was very
busy and didn't schedule the guest for some time.

I took a look on the qemu/KVM options and decided to update the options:

- Use kvm{32|64} as CPU. We could probably use `host' (like ARM does)
  for maximum available features but since we don't run any userland I'm
  not sure if it makes any difference.

- Drop the "noapic" option. There is no history why the APIC was disabled,
  I see no reason for it.  Once old qemu versions fade away, we can add
  "x2apic=on,tsc-deadline=on,hypervisor=on,tsc_adjust=on".

- Additional config options. It ensures that the kernel knowns that it
  runs as a kvm guest and can use virt devices like the kvm-clock as
  clocksource. The kvm-clock was the main motivation here.

- I didn't add a random HW device. It would make the random device ready
  earlier (not it doesn't complete the initialisation at all) but I
  doubt that there is any need for this.

[ paulmck: The world is not quite ready for CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=y
  and x2apic, so they are omitted for the time being. ]

cdfc7f1ab5 torture: Add tests without slow grace period setup/cleanup
This commit moves CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP,
CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT, and CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT
from CFcommon to all of the TREE scenarios other than TREE08 and TREE09
in order to do at least some testing without these Kconfig options set.

0f41c0ddad rcu: Provide diagnostic option to slow down grace-period scans
Grace-period scans of the rcu_node combining tree normally
proceed quite quickly, so that it is very difficult to reproduce
races against them.  This commit therefore allows grace-period
pre-initialization and cleanup to be artificially slowed down,
increasing race-reproduction probability.  A pair of pairs of new
Kconfig parameters are provided, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT to
enable the slowing down of propagating CPU-hotplug changes up the
combining tree along with RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY to
specify the delay in jiffies, and RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP
to enable the slowing down of the end-of-grace-period cleanup scan
along with RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP_DELAY to specify the delay
in jiffies.  Boot-time parameters named rcutree.gp_preinit_delay and
rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay allow these delays to be specified at boot time.

b6505deafa rcutorture: Enable slow grace-period initializations
This commit sets CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT=y, but leaves the
default time zero.  This can be overridden by passing the
"--bootargs rcutree.gp_init_delay=1" argument to kvm.sh.

61010e74d7 rcutorture: Introduce "rcu" directory level underneath configs
This commit uses the standard software ploy of introducing another
level of indirection below the configs directory.  This allows each
torture-test suite to have its own set of Kconfig files, boot parameters,
and version-specific scripts.  Initially, we have only rcu, but lock
will follow soonish.
