Some servers have limitations on the number of CPUs a given guest OS
can use. In my earlier experience, such limitations have been at least
half of the host's CPUs, but in a recent example, this limit is less
than 40%. This commit therefore adds a --guest-cpu-limit argument that
allows such low limits to be made known to torture.sh.

Add CFcommon.arch for arch-specific Kconfig options.
In accordance with [1], [2] and [3], move the x86-specific kernel option
CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST to CFcommon.i686 and CFcommon.x86_64, and also
move the x86/PowerPC CONFIG_KVM_GUEST Kconfig option to CFcommon.i686,
CFcommon.x86_64, and CFcommon.ppc64le.
The "arch" in CFcommon.arch is taken from the "uname -m" command.

The TREE09 rcutorture scenario exhausts memory from time to time, and
this is due to a reader being preempted and blocking grace periods,
thus preventing recycling of the memory used in callback-flooding tests.
This commit therefore enables RCU priority boosting and sets the boosting
delay to 100 milliseconds after grace-period start.

The tradition, extending back almost a full year, has been 2GB plus an
additional number of GBs equal to the number of CPUs divided by sixteen.
This tradition has served scftorture well, even the CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
version running KASAN within guest OSes having 40 CPUs. However, this
test recently started OOMing on larger systems, and this commit therefore
gives this test an additional GB of memory.
It is quite possible that further testing on larger systems will show
a need to decrease the divisor from 16 to (say) 8, but that is a change
to make once it has been demonstrated to be required.

On a 8-socket server the TSC is wrongly marked as 'unstable' and disabled
during boot time on about one out of 120 boot attempts:
clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU227: wd-tsc-wd excessive read-back delay of 153560ns vs. limit of 125000ns,
wd-wd read-back delay only 11440ns, attempt 3, marking tsc unstable
tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to clocksource watchdog
TSC found unstable after boot, most likely due to broken BIOS. Use 'tsc=unstable'.
sched_clock: Marking unstable (119294969739, 159204297)<-(125446229205, -5992055152)
clocksource: Checking clocksource tsc synchronization from CPU 319 to CPUs 0,99,136,180,210,542,601,896.
clocksource: Switched to clocksource hpet
The reason is that for platform with a large number of CPUs, there are
sporadic big or huge read latencies while reading the watchog/clocksource
during boot or when system is under stress work load, and the frequency and
maximum value of the latency goes up with the number of online CPUs.
The cCurrent code already has logic to detect and filter such high latency
case by reading the watchdog twice and checking the two deltas. Due to the
randomness of the latency, there is a low probabilty that the first delta
(latency) is big, but the second delta is small and looks valid. The
watchdog code retries the readouts by default twice, which is not
necessarily sufficient for systems with a large number of CPUs.
There is a command line parameter 'max_cswd_read_retries' which allows to
increase the number of retries, but that's not user friendly as it needs to
be tweaked per system. As the number of required retries is proportional to
the number of online CPUs, this parameter can be calculated at runtime.
Scale and enlarge the number of retries according to the number of online
CPUs and remove the command line parameter completely.

There is code in rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs() that checks for the current
grace period being halfway to the RCU CPU stall timeout, but rcutorture

RCU CPU stall warning timeout of 21 seconds.

When debugging, it can be difficult to quickly find the ftrace dump
within the console log, which in turn makes it difficult to process it
independent of the rest of the console output. This commit therefore
copies the contents of the buffers into its own file to make it easier
to locate and process the ftrace dump. The original ftrace dump is still
available in the console log in cases because it can be more convenient
to process it in situ, for example, for scripts that process console
output as well as ftrace-dump data.
Also handle the case of multiple ftrace dumps potentially showing up in the
log. Example for a file like [1], it will extract as [2].

Currently, if the C program created by mkinitrd.sh has compile errors,
the errors are printed, but kvm.sh soldiers on, building kernels that
have init-less initrd setups. The kernels then fail on boot when they
attempt to mount non-existent root filesystems.
This commit therefore improves user friendliness by making mkinitrd.sh
return non-zero exit status on compile errors, which in turn causes kvm.sh
to take an early exit, with the compile errors still clearly visible.

KCSAN enables some Kconfig options unilaterally and unconditionally,
including CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING. This in turn enables CONFIG_PROVE_RCU
and CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, which conflicts with constraints in SRCU-T,

configuration complaints. This commit therefore forgives configuration
complaints involving CONFIG_PROVE_RCU and CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT.

Currently, the kernel boot parameters specified by the kvm.sh --bootargs
parameter are placed near the beginning of the -append list that is

neither the list in the .boot file nor the additional parameters supplied

In order to (for example) omit the real-time testing that torture.sh would
otherwise carry out, you put "--do-no-rt" on the torture.sh command line.

unambiguous and easier to type, so this commit therefore allows all

The CBMC-based formal-verification testing for SRCU was quite the thing
back in 2016, but the problem is that SRCU changes too quickly for the
