Paul E. McKenney eb77abfdee rcuscale: Warn on individual rcu_scale_init() error conditions
When running rcuscale as a module, any rcu_scale_init() issues will be
reflected in the error code from modprobe or insmod, as the case may be.
However, these error codes are not available when running rcuscale
built-in, for example, when using the kvm.sh script.  This commit
therefore adds WARN_ON_ONCE() to allow distinguishing rcu_scale_init()
errors when running rcuscale built-in.

Jiangong.Han 811192c5f2 rcuscale: Console output claims too few grace periods
The rcuscale console output claims N grace periods, numbered from zero
to N, which means that there were really N+1 grace periods.  The root
cause of this bug is that rcu_scale_writer() stores the number of the
last grace period (numbered from zero) into writer_n_durations[me]
instead of the number of grace periods.  This commit therefore assigns
the actual number of grace periods to writer_n_durations[me], and also
makes the corresponding adjustment to the loop outputting per-grace-period
measurements.

Sample of old console output:
    rcu-scale: writer 0 gps: 133
    ......
    rcu-scale:    0 writer-duration:     0 44003961
    rcu-scale:    0 writer-duration:     1 32003582
    ......
    rcu-scale:    0 writer-duration:   132 28004391
    rcu-scale:    0 writer-duration:   133 27996410

Sample of new console output:
    rcu-scale: writer 0 gps: 134
    ......
    rcu-scale:    0 writer-duration:     0 44003961
    rcu-scale:    0 writer-duration:     1 32003582
    ......
    rcu-scale:    0 writer-duration:   132 28004391
    rcu-scale:    0 writer-duration:   133 27996410

Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) 686fe1bf6b rcuscale: Add kfree_rcu() single-argument scale test
The single-argument variant of kfree_rcu() is currently not
tested by any member of the rcutoture test suite.  This
commit therefore adds rcuscale code to test it.  This
testing is controlled by two new boolean module parameters,
kfree_rcu_test_single and kfree_rcu_test_double.  If one
is set and the other not, only the corresponding variant
is tested, otherwise both are tested, with the variant to
be tested determined randomly on each invocation.

Both of these module parameters are initialized to false,
so setting either to true will test only that variant.

Paul E. McKenney 2f2214d43c rcuscale: Prevent hangs for invalid arguments
If an rcuscale torture-test run is given a bad kvm.sh argument, the
test will complain to the console, which is good.  What is bad is that
from the user's perspective, it will just hang for the time specified
by the --duration argument.  This commit therefore forces an immediate
kernel shutdown if a rcu_scale_init()-time error occurs, thus avoiding
the appearance of a hang.  It also forces a console splat in this case
to clearly indicate the presence of an error.

Paul E. McKenney 4e88ec4a9e rcuperf: Change rcuperf to rcuscale
This commit further avoids conflation of rcuperf with the kernel's perf
feature by renaming kernel/rcu/rcuperf.c to kernel/rcu/rcuscale.c, and
also by similarly renaming the functions and variables inside this file.
This has the side effect of changing the names of the kernel boot
parameters, so kernel-parameters.txt and ver_functions.sh are also
updated.  The rcutorture --torture type was also updated from rcuperf
to rcuscale.
