Paul E. McKenney d2ebf7eea0 rcutorture: Create CFcommon file for common Kconfig parameters
Currently, CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST=y is hardcoded into the
kvm-test-1-rcu.sh script and CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME=y is mentioned in each
and every configs file.  This commit creates a CFcommon file for these
two Kconfig parameters, and modifies kvm-test-1-rcu.sh to copy this new
file into the .config file during the build.  This change will allow
these scripts to operate on torture types other than just rcutorture.

Paul E. McKenney 7fafaac5b9 rcutorture: Fix rcutorture shutdown races
Not all of the rcutorture kthreads waited for kthread_should_stop()
before returning from their top-level functions, and none of them
used torture_shutdown_absorb() properly.  These problems can result in
segfaults and hangs at shutdown time, and some recent changes perturbed
timing sufficiently to make them much more probable.  This commit
therefore creates a torture_kthread_stopping() function that does the
proper kthread shutdown dance in one centralized location.

Accommodate this grouping by making VERBOSE_TOROUT_STRING() capable of
taking a non-const string as its argument, which allows the new
torture_kthread_stopping() to pass its "title" argument directly to
the updated version of VERBOSE_TOROUT_STRING().

Paul E. McKenney 5395467103 rcutorture: Do better bin packing
Running the standard set of rcutorture tests on 24 CPUs results in
the following sub-optimal schedule:

	----start batch----
	 TREE07 16
	----start batch----
	 TREE08 16
	 SRCU-P 8
	----start batch----
	 TREE01 8
	 TREE02 8
	 TREE03 8
	----start batch----
	 TREE04 8
	 TREE05 8
	 TREE06 8
	----start batch----
	 SRCU-N 4
	 TINY01 1
	 TINY02 1
	 TREE09 1

If one of the eight-CPU runs were to be moved into the first batch,
the test suite would complete in four batches rather than five.

This commit therefore uses a greedy algorithm to re-order the test
entries so that the sequential batching will produce an optimal schedule
in this case:

	----start batch----
	 TREE07 16
	 SRCU-P 8
	----start batch----
	 TREE08 16
	 TREE01 8
	----start batch----
	 TREE02 8
	 TREE03 8
	 TREE04 8
	----start batch----
	 TREE05 8
	 TREE06 8
	 SRCU-N 4
	 TINY01 1
	 TINY02 1
	 TREE09 1

Please note that this is still not an optimal bin-packing algorithm,
however, it does produce optimal solutions for most common scenarios.

sixteen of them.  Therefore, rcutorture testing could be sped up
significantly simply by running the kernels in parallel.  Building
them in parallel is not all that helpful: "make -j" is usually a
better bet.  So this commit takes a new "--cpus" argument that
specifies how many CPUs rcutorture is permitted to use for its
parallel runs.  The default of zero does sequential runs as before.

The bin-packing is minimal, and will be grossly suboptimal for
some configurations.  However, powers of two work reasonably well.

Pull devicetree fixes from Rob Herring:
 "Fix booting on PPC boards.  Changes to of_match_node matching caused
  the serial port on some PPC boards to stop working.  Reverted the
  change and reimplement to split matching between new style compatible
  only matching and fallback to old matching algorithm"

Kevin Hao 06b29e76a7 of: search the best compatible match first in __of_match_node()
Currently, of_match_node compares each given match against all node's
compatible strings with of_device_is_compatible.

To achieve multiple compatible strings per node with ordering from
specific to generic, this requires given matches to be ordered from
specific to generic. For most of the drivers this is not true and also
an alphabetical ordering is more sane there.

Therefore, this patch introduces a function to match each of the node's
compatible strings against all given compatible matches without type and
name first, before checking the next compatible string. This implies
that node's compatibles are ordered from specific to generic while
given matches can be in any order. If we fail to find such a match
entry, then fall-back to the old method in order to keep compatibility.
