Subject: [PATCH v5 4/4] rcu: Add RCU stall diagnosis information

In some extreme cases, such as the I/O pressure test, the CPU usage may
be 100%, causing RCU stall. In this case, the printed information about
current is not useful. Displays the number and usage of hard interrupts,
soft interrupts, and context switches that are generated within half of
the CPU stall timeout, can help us make a general judgment. In other
cases, we can preliminarily determine whether an infinite loop occurs
when local_irq, local_bh or preempt is disabled.

For example:
rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
rcu:     0-....: (1250 ticks this GP) <omitted>
rcu:          hardirqs   softirqs   csw/system
rcu:  number:      624         45            0
rcu: cputime:       69          1         2425   ==> 2500(ms)

The example above shows that the number of hard and soft interrupts is
small, there is zero context switching, and the system takes up a lot of
time. We can quickly conclude that the current task is infinitely looped
with preempt_disable().

The impact on system performance is negligible because snapshot is
recorded only one time after 1/2 CPU stall timeout.

This enhanced debugging information is suppressed by default and can be
enabled by CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_DEEP_DEBUG=y or
rcupdate.rcu_cpu_stall_deep_debug=1.
