rcu: Use smp_hotplug_thread facility for RCUs per-CPU kthread
Bring RCU into the new-age CPU-hotplug fold by modifying RCU's per-CPU kthread code to use the new smp_hotplug_thread facility. [ tglx: Adapted it to use callbacks and to the simplified rcu yield ] Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Srivatsa S.
