rcu-tasks: Add an RCU-tasks rude variant
This commit adds a "rude" variant of RCU-tasks that has as quiescent
states schedule(), cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs(), userspace execution,
and (in theory, anyway) cond_resched(). In other words, RCU-tasks rude
readers are regions of code with preemption disabled, but excluding code
early in the CPU-online sequence and late in the CPU-offline sequence.
Updates make use of IPIs and force an IPI and a context switch on each
online CPU. This variant is useful in some situations in tracing.
