Subject: [PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 03/20] rcu: priority boosting for TINY_PREEMPT_RCU

From: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@...aro.org>

Add priority boosting, but only for TINY_PREEMPT_RCU.  This is enabled
by the default-off RCU_BOOST kernel parameter.  The priority to which to
boost preempted RCU readers is controlled by the RCU_BOOST_PRIO kernel
parameter (defaulting to real-time priority 1) and the time to wait
before boosting the readers blocking a given grace period is controlled
by the RCU_BOOST_DELAY kernel parameter (defaulting to 500 milliseconds).
