rcutorture: Remove cbflood facility

Browse Source 
Now that the forward-progress code does a full-bore continuous callback
flood lasting multiple seconds, there is little point in also posting a
mere 60,000 callbacks every second or so.  This commit therefore removes
the old cbflood testing.  Over time, it may be desirable to concurrently
do full-bore continuous callback floods on all CPUs simultaneously, but
one dragon at a time.

no holdoff.
rcutorture.cbflood_inter_holdoff= [KNL]
Set holdoff time (jiffies) between successive
callback-flood tests.
rcutorture.cbflood_intra_holdoff= [KNL]
Set holdoff time (jiffies) between successive
bursts of callbacks within a given callback-flood
test.
rcutorture.cbflood_n_burst= [KNL]
Set the number of bursts making up a given
callback-flood test. Set this to zero to
disable callback-flood testing.
rcutorture.cbflood_n_per_burst= [KNL]
Set the number of callbacks to be registered
in a given burst of a callback-flood test.
rcutorture.fqs_duration= [KNL]
Set duration of force_quiescent_state bursts
in microseconds.
