The torture_shutdown_init() function spawns a shutdown kthread in
a manner very similar to that implemented by ref_scale_shutdown().
This commit therefore re-implements ref_scale_shutdown in terms of
torture_shutdown_init().
The initial draft of this patch was generated by version 2.1.16 of the
Claude AI/LLM, but trained and configured for use by my employer, and
prompted to refer to Linux-kernel source code. This initial draft failed
to provide a forward reference to ref_scale_cleanup(), passed zero to
torture_shutdown_init() for an unwelcome insta-shutdown, and failed to
pass the kvm.sh --duration argument in as a refscale module parameter.
On the other hand, it did catch the need to NULL main_task on the
post-test self-shutdown code path, which I might well have forgotten
to do.
This version of the patch fixes those problems, and in fact very little
of the initial draft remains.

As of v7.0-rc1, architectures that support preemption, including x86 and
arm64, no longer support CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE or CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY.
Attempting to build kernels with these two Kconfig options results in
.config errors. This commit therefore switches such refscale scenarios
to CONFIG_PREEMPT_LAZY.

Currently, the kernel boot parameters specified by the kvm.sh --bootargs
parameter are placed near the beginning of the -append list that is
passed to qemu. This means that in the not-uncommon case of a kernel
boot parameter where the last argument wins, the --bootargs list overrides
neither the list in the .boot file nor the additional parameters supplied
by the rcutorture scripting.
This commit therefore places the kernel boot parameters specified by
the kvm.sh --bootargs parameter at the end of qemu's -append list.

It is no longer possible to build a kernel with a preemption-disabled
RCU without use of CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n. This commit therefore
adds CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n to the refscale torture type's NOPREEMPT
scenario file.

Currently, a CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y kernel substitutes normal RCU for
RCU Tasks Rude and RCU Tasks Trace. Unless that kernel builds refscale,
whether built-in or as a module, in which case these RCU Tasks flavors are
(unnecessarily) built in. This both increases kernel size and increases
the complexity of certain tracing operations. This commit therefore
decouples the presence of refscale from the presence of RCU Tasks Rude
and RCU Tasks Trace.

All of the rcuscale and refscale scenarios that mention the Kconfig option
CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ disable it. But this Kconfig option is disabled by
default, so this commit removes the pointless "CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ=n"
lines from these scenarios.

It is no longer possible to disable CPU hotplug in many configurations,
which means that the CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n lines in refscale's Kconfig
options are just a source of useless diagnostics. In addition, refscale
doesn't do CPU-hotplug operations in any case. This commit therefore
changes these lines to read CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y.

Given large numbers of threads, the quantity of torture-test output is
sufficient to sometimes result in RCU CPU stall warnings. The probability
of these stall warnings was greatly reduced by batching the output,
but the warnings were not eliminated. However, the actual test only
depends on console output that is printed even when refscale.verbose=0.
This commit therefore causes this test to run with refscale.verbose=0.

This commit renames the rcutorture config/refperf to config/refscale to
further avoid conflation with the Linux kernel's perf feature.
