[PATCH tip/core/rcu 05/18] Default enable RCU list lockdep debugging with PROVE_RCU

[paulmck]

From: Madhuparna Bhowmik <madhuparnabhowmik10@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch default enables CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST option with
CONFIG_PROVE_RCU for RCU list lockdep debugging.

With this change, RCU list lockdep debugging will be default
enabled in CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y kernels.

Most of the RCU users (in core kernel/, drivers/, and net/
subsystem) have already been modified to include lockdep
expressions hence RCU list debugging can be enabled by
default.

However, there are still chances of enountering
false-positive lockdep splats because not everything is converted,
in case RCU list primitives are used in non-RCU read-side critical
section but under the protection of a lock. It would be okay to
have a few false-positives, as long as bugs are identified, since this
patch only affects debugging kernels.
