rcu: limit rcu_node leaf-level fanout

Browse source 
Some recent benchmarks have indicated possible lock contention on the
leaf-level rcu_node locks.  This commit therefore limits the number of
CPUs per leaf-level rcu_node structure to 16, in other words, there
can be at most 16 rcu_data structures fanning into a given rcu_node
structure.  Prior to this, the limit was 32 on 32-bit systems and 64 on
64-bit systems.

Note that the fanout of non-leaf rcu_node structures is unchanged.  The
organization of accesses to the rcu_node tree is such that references
to non-leaf rcu_node structures are much less frequent than to the
leaf structures.
