Removing this requires also removing its use in rcutorture.

I have therefore queued the commit below in -rcu, but please feel
free to take it along with the BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0-removal patch.
Just please let me know if you do.

(Yes, I finally got back to testing -next.  Why do you ask?)

							Thanx, Paul

    rcutorture: Remove obsolete BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 Kconfig option
    
    Now that the BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 Kconfig option is in the process of
    being removed, it is time to remove rcutorture's use of it.
