Subject: [PATCH rcu 5/7] rcuscale: Warn on individual rcu_scale_init() error conditions

When running rcuscale as a module, any rcu_scale_init() issues will be
reflected in the error code from modprobe or insmod, as the case may be.
However, these error codes are not available when running rcuscale
built-in, for example, when using the kvm.sh script.  This commit
therefore adds WARN_ON_ONCE() to allow distinguishing rcu_scale_init()
errors when running rcuscale built-in.
