[PATCH rcu 04/10] rcu: Create per-cpu rcuc kthreads only when rcutree.use_softirq=0

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: Zqiang <qiang1.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>

The per-CPU "rcuc" kthreads are used only by kernels booted with
rcutree.use_softirq=0, but they are nevertheless unconditionally created
by kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y.  This results in "rcuc"
kthreads being created that are never actually used.  This commit
therefore refrains from creating these kthreads unless the kernel
is actually booted with rcutree.use_softirq=0.
