Subject: [PATCH RFC] v2 expedited "big hammer" RCU grace periods

Second cut of "big hammer" expedited RCU grace periods, but only for
rcu_bh.  This creates another softirq vector, so that entering this
softirq vector will have forced an rcu_bh quiescent state (as noted by
Dave Miller).  Use smp_call_function() to invoke raise_softirq() on all
CPUs in order to cause this to happen.  Track the CPUs that have passed
through a quiescent state (or gone offline) with a cpumask.

Does nothing to expedite callbacks already registered with call_rcu_bh(),
but there is no need to.

Passes light rcutorture testing.  Grace periods take about 28 microseconds
on an 8CPU 1.5GHZ Power box.

Shortcomings:

o	Needs more testing, still not for inclusion.

o	Does not handle rcu, only rcu_bh.

Changes since v1:

o	Added rcutorture support, and added exports required by
	rcutorture.

o	Added comment stating that smp_call_function() implies a
	memory barrier, suggested by Mathieu.

o	Added #include for delay.h.
