a2f2577d96 torture: Eliminate torture_runnable and perf_runnable
The purpose of torture_runnable is to allow rcutorture and locktorture
to be started and stopped via sysfs when they are built into the kernel
(as in not compiled as loadable modules).  However, the 0444 permissions
for both instances of torture_runnable prevent this use case from ever
being put into practice.  Given that there have been no complaints
about this deficiency, it is reasonable to conclude that no one actually
makes use of this sysfs capability.  The perf_runnable module parameter
for rcuperf is in the same situation.

This commit therefore removes both torture_runnable instances as well
as perf_runnable.

cc1321c96f torture: Reduce #ifdefs for preempt_schedule()
This commit adds a torture_preempt_schedule() that is nothingness
in !PREEMPT builds and is preempt_schedule() otherwise.  Then
torture_preempt_schedule() is used to eliminate several ugly #ifdefs,
both in rcutorture and in locktorture.

489bb3d252 torture: TOROUT_STRING(): Insert a space between flag and message
The TOROUT_STRING() macro does not insert a space between the flag and
the message.  In contrast, other similar torture-test dmesg messages
consistently supply a single space character.  This difference makes the
output hard to read and to mechanically parse.  This commit therefore
adds a space character between flag and message in TOROUT_STRING() output.

d36a7a0d5e torture: Address race in module cleanup
When performing module cleanups by calling torture_cleanup() the
'torture_type' string in nullified However, callers are not necessarily
done, and might still need to reference the variable. This impacts
both rcutorture and locktorture, causing printing things like:

[   94.226618] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_writer task
[   94.226624] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_stats task

Thus delay this operation until the very end of the cleanup process.
The consequence (which shouldn't matter for this kid of program) is,
of course, that we delay the window between rmmod and modprobing,
for instance in module_torture_begin().

eea203fea3 rcu: Use pr_alert/pr_cont for printing logs
User pr_alert/pr_cont for printing the logs from rcutorture module directly
instead of writing it to a buffer and then printing it. This allows us from not
having to allocate such buffers. Also remove a resulting empty function.

I tested this using the parse-torture.sh script as follows:

$ dmesg | grep torture > log.txt
$ bash parse-torture.sh log.txt test
$

There were no warnings which means that parsing went fine.

bfefc73aa1 rcutorture: Stop generic kthreads in torture_cleanup()
The specific torture modules (like rcutorture) need to call
torture_cleanup() in any case, so this commit makes torture_cleanup()
deal with torture_shutdown_cleanup() and torture_stutter_cleanup() so
that the specific modules don't have to deal with these details.

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().

f67a33561e rcutorture: Abstract torture_shutdown_absorb()
Because handling races between rmmod and normal shutdown is not specific
to rcutorture, this commit renames rcutorture_shutdown_absorb() to
torture_shutdown_absorb() and pulls it out into then kernel/torture.c

The exporting of fullstop and fullstop_mutex is ugly and must die.
And it does in fact die in later commits that introduce higher-level
APIs that encapsulate both of these variables.
