srcu: Add boot-time control over srcu_node array allocation

Browse source 
This commit adds an srcu_tree.convert_to_big kernel parameter that either
refuses to convert at all (0), converts immediately at init_srcu_struct()
time (1), or lets rcutorture convert it (2).  An addition contention-based
dynamic conversion choice will be added, along with documentation.

performance impact to RDRAND and RDSEED
srcutree.convert_to_big [KNL]
Specifies under what conditions an SRCU tree
srcu_struct structure will be converted to big
form, that is, with an rcu_node tree:
0: Never.
1: At init_srcu_struct() time.
2: When rcutorture decides to.
Either way, the srcu_node tree will be sized based
on the actual runtime number of CPUs (nr_cpu_ids)
instead of the compile-time CONFIG_NR_CPUS.
srcutree.counter_wrap_check [KNL]
Specifies how frequently to check for
grace-period sequence counter wrap for the
