Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 2/4] rcu: enable fourth level of TREE_RCU hierarchy

From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

Enable a fourth level of rcu_node hierarchy for TREE_RCU and
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU.  This is for stress-testing and experiemental
purposes only, although in theory this would enable 16,777,216 CPUs
on 64-bit systems, though only 1,048,576 CPUs on 32-bit systems.
Normal experimental use of this fourth level will normally set
CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT=2, requiring a 16-CPU system, though the more
adventurous (and more fortunate) experimenters may wish to chose
CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT=3 for 81-CPU systems or even CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT=4 for
256-CPU systems.
