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().

A few "stealth-start rcutorture kthreads" have accumulated over the years,
so this commit adds console-log announcements (but only if the torture
tests are running verbose).

This commit introduces the torture_must_stop() function in order to
keep use of the fullstop variable local to kernel/torture.c. There
is also a torture_must_stop_irq() counterpart for use from RCU callbacks,
timeout handlers, and the like.

This commit creates torture_init_begin() and torture_init_end() functions
to abstract locking and allow the torture_type and verbose variables

fullstop_mutex will also become static.

The torture_shuffle() function forces each CPU in turn to go idle
periodically in order to check for problems interacting with per-CPU
variables and with dyntick-idle mode. Because this sort of debugging
is not specific to RCU, this commit abstracts that functionality.
This in turn requires abstracting some additional infrastructure.

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
module. This implies pulling the fullstop mechanism into kernel/torture.c
as well.
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.

Because rcu_torture_random() will be used by the locking equivalent to
rcutorture, pull it out into its own module. This new module cannot

from the Kconfig options of tests depending on it.
