rcu: add priority-inversion testing to rcutorture
Add an optional test to force long-term preemption of RCU read-side critical sections, controlled by new test_boost, test_boost_interval, and test_boost_duration module parameters. This is to be used to test RCU priority boosting. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
