rcu: make rcutorture even more vicious: invoke RCU readers from irq handlers (timers)
This patch allows torturing RCU from irq handlers (timers, in this case).
A new module parameter irqreader enables such additional torturing,
and is enabled by default. Variants of RCU that do not tolerate readers
being called from irq handlers (e.g., SRCU) ignore irqreader.
