RCU pull request for v6.3

This pull request contains the following branches:

doc.2023.01.05a: Documentation updates.

fixes.2023.01.23a: Miscellaneous fixes, perhaps most notably:

o	Throttling callback invocation based on the number of callbacks
	that are now ready to invoke instead of on the total number
	of callbacks.

o	Several patches that suppress false-positive boot-time
	diagnostics, for example, due to lockdep not yet being
	initialized.

o	Make expedited RCU CPU stall warnings dump stacks of any tasks
	that are blocking the stalled grace period.  (Normal RCU CPU
	stall warnings have doen this for mnay years.)

o	Lazy-callback fixes to avoid delays during boot, suspend, and
	resume.  (Note that lazy callbacks must be explicitly enabled,
	so this should not (yet) affect production use cases.)

kvfree.2023.01.03a: Cause kfree_rcu() and friends to take advantage of
	polled grace periods, thus reducing memory footprint by almost
	two orders of magnitude, admittedly on a microbenchmark.
	This series also begins the transition from kfree_rcu(p) to
	kfree_rcu_mightsleep(p).  This transition was motivated by bugs
	where kfree_rcu(p), which can block, was typed instead of the
	intended kfree_rcu(p, rh).

srcu.2023.01.03a: SRCU updates, perhaps most notably fixing a bug that
	causes SRCU to fail when booted on a system with a non-zero boot
	CPU.  This surprising situation actually happens for kdump kernels
	on the powerpc architecture.  It also adds an srcu_down_read()
	and srcu_up_read(), which act like srcu_read_lock() and
	srcu_read_unlock(), but allow an SRCU read-side critical section
	to be handed off from one task to another.

srcu-always.2023.02.02a: Cleans up the now-useless SRCU Kconfig option.
	There are a few more commits that are not yet acked or pulled
	into maintainer trees, and these will be in a pull request for
	a later merge window.

tasks.2023.01.03a: RCU-tasks updates, perhaps most notably these fixes:

o	A strange interaction between PID-namespace unshare and the
	RCU-tasks grace period that results in a low-probability but
	very real hang.

o	A race between an RCU tasks rude grace period on a single-CPU
	system and CPU-hotplug addition of the second CPU that can result
	in a too-short grace period.

o	A race between shrinking RCU tasks down to a single callback list
	and queuing a new callback to some other CPU, but where that
	queuing is delayed for more than an RCU grace period.  This can
	result in that callback being stranded on the non-boot CPU.

torture.2023.01.05a: Torture-test updates and fixes.

torturescript.2023.01.03a: Torture-test scripting updates and fixes.

stall.2023.01.09a: Provide additional RCU CPU stall-warning information
	in kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_CPUTIME=y, and
	restore the full five-minute timeout limit for expedited RCU
	CPU stall warnings.
