Explicitly state that enabling RCU_TRACE enables more
tracepoints and not just "additional tracing".

Hello Paul,

Following our latest conversation re. enabling RCU tracing
I had to actually go and look into the code to see which
option enables the additional tracepoints. I wasn't sure
while reading the help of TRACE_RCU. So here is a patch
which explicitly states that this enables additional
tracepoints.

Apply it if you deem necessary it might be just me that
thinks the description is not verbose enough.

Say Y here if you want to enable RCU tracing
Say N if you are unsure.
