rcu: Provide compile-time control for no-CBs CPUs 

Currently, the only way to specify no-CBs CPUs is via the rcu_nocbs
kernel command-line parameter.  This is inconvenient in some cases,
particularly for randconfig testing, so this commit adds a new set of
kernel configuration parameters.  CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_NONE (the default)
retains the old behavior, CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ZERO offloads callback
processing from CPU 0 (along with any other CPUs specified by the
rcu_nocbs boot-time parameter), and CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL offloads
callback processing from all CPUs.

prompt "Build-forced no-CBs CPUs"
default RCU_NOCB_CPU_NONE
help
This option allows no-CBs CPUs to be specified at build time.
Additional no-CBs CPUs may be specified by the rcu_nocbs=
boot parameter.
config RCU_NOCB_CPU_NONE
bool "No build_forced no-CBs CPUs"
depends on RCU_NOCB_CPU
help
This option does not force any of the CPUs to be no-CBs CPUs.
Only CPUs designated by the rcu_nocbs= boot parameter will be
no-CBs CPUs.
config RCU_NOCB_CPU_ZERO
bool "CPU 0 is a build_forced no-CBs CPU"
depends on RCU_NOCB_CPU
help
This option forces CPU 0 to be a no-CBs CPU. Additional CPUs
may be designated as no-CBs CPUs using the rcu_nocbs= boot
parameter will be no-CBs CPUs.
Select this if CPU 0 needs to be a no-CBs CPU for real-time
or energy-efficiency reasons.
config RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL
bool "All CPUs are build_forced no-CBs CPUs"
depends on RCU_NOCB_CPU
help
This option forces all CPUs to be no-CBs CPUs. The rcu_nocbs=
boot parameter will be ignored.
Select this if all CPUs need to be no-CBs CPUs for real-time
or energy-efficiency reasons.
