[PATCH v3 4/8] sched: rcutorture: Allow to disable DL fair_server

[Sebastian Andrzej Siewior]

The rcutorture test used to disable RT throttling only in the built-in
mode and this functionality got lost while RT throttling was moved to
the fair_server.
Enabling this option (built-in) slows down the system considerably.
Therefore it makes little sense to enable the fair_server once the test
is done since a reboot comes next.

The fair server can not be disabled from the hotplug notifier because
the CPU must be marked active. Instead of this off-switch an alternative
would be to skip sched_init_dl_servers().

Add dl_server_fair_disable() do disable the fair_server which can only
be used by rcutorture. Use dl_server_fair_disable() in
rcu_torture_boost() which is invoked on the CPU which should have the
fair_server disabled.
