sched/isolation: Eliminate NO_HZ_FULL_ALL
Commit 6f1982fedd59 ("sched/isolation: Handle the nohz_full= parameter")
broke CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL=y kernels. This breakage is due to the code
under CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL failing to invoke the shiny new housekeeping
functions. This means that rcutorture scenario TREE04 now emits RCU CPU
stall warnings due to the RCU grace-period kthreads not being awakened
at a time of their choosing, or perhaps even not at all:
[ 27.731422] rcu_bh kthread starved for 21001 jiffies! g18446744073709551369 c18446744073709551368 f0x0 RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS(3) ->state=0x402 ->cpu=3

[ 27.731458] ? rcu_gp_kthread+0x66c/0xea0
Because no one has complained about CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL=y being broken,
I hypothesize that no one is in fact using it, other than rcutorture.
This commit therefore eliminates CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL and updates
rcutorture's config files to instead use the nohz_full= kernel parameter
to put the desired CPUs into nohz_full mode.

this means that your system must have at least two CPUs in order for
CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y to do anything for you.
-Alternatively, the CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL=y Kconfig parameter specifies
-that all CPUs other than the boot CPU are adaptive-ticks CPUs. This
-Kconfig parameter will be overridden by the "nohz_full=" boot parameter,
-so that if both the CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL=y Kconfig parameter and
-the "nohz_full=1" boot parameter is specified, the boot parameter will
-prevail so that only CPU 1 will be an adaptive-ticks CPU.

Finally, adaptive-ticks CPUs must have their RCU callbacks offloaded.
This is covered in the "RCU IMPLICATIONS" section below.
