rcu: Clean up code based on review feedback from Josh Triplett, part 2
These issues identified during an old-fashioned face-to-face code
review extending over many hours.
o Add comments for tricky parts of code, and correct comments
that have passed their sell-by date.
o Get rid of the vestiges of rcu_init_sched(), which is no
longer needed now that PREEMPT_RCU is gone.
o Move the #include of rcutree_plugin.h to the end of
rcutree.c, which means that, rather than having a random
collection of forward declarations, the new set of forward
declarations document the set of plugins. The new home for
this #include also allows __rcu_init_preempt() to move into
rcutree_plugin.h.
o Fix rcu_preempt_check_callbacks() to be static.
