rcu: Remove the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ Kconfig option 

All of the uses of CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ=y that I have seen involve
systems with RCU callbacks offloaded.  In this situation, all that this
Kconfig option does is slow down idle entry/exit with an additional
allways-taken early exit.  If this is the only use case, then this
Kconfig option nothing but an attractive nuisance that needs to go away.

This commit therefore removes the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ Kconfig option.

an estimate of the total number of RCU callbacks queued across all CPUs

In kernels with CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ, more information is printed
for each CPU::
0: (64628 ticks this GP) idle=dd5/3fffffffffffffff/0 softirq=82/543 last_accelerate: a345/d342 dyntick_enabled: 1
The "last_accelerate:" prints the low-order 16 bits (in hex) of the
jiffies counter when this CPU last invoked rcu_try_advance_all_cbs()
from rcu_needs_cpu() or last invoked rcu_accelerate_cbs() from
rcu_prepare_for_idle(). "dyntick_enabled: 1" indicates that dyntick-idle
processing is enabled.
If the grace period ends just as the stall warning starts printing,
there will be a spurious stall-warning message, which will include
the following::

@ -184,16 +184,12 @@ There are situations in which idle CPUs cannot be permitted to
enter either dyntick-idle mode or adaptive-tick mode, the most
common being when that CPU has RCU callbacks pending.
The CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ=y Kconfig option may be used to cause such CPUs
to enter dyntick-idle mode or adaptive-tick mode anyway. In this case,
a timer will awaken these CPUs every four jiffies in order to ensure
that the RCU callbacks are processed in a timely fashion.
Another approach is to offload RCU callback processing to "rcuo" kthreads
Avoid this by offloading RCU callback processing to "rcuo" kthreads
using the CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y Kconfig option. The specific CPUs to
offload may be selected using The "rcu_nocbs=" kernel boot parameter,
which takes a comma-separated list of CPUs and CPU ranges, for example,
"1,3-5" selects CPUs 1, 3, 4, and 5.
"1,3-5" selects CPUs 1, 3, 4, and 5. Note that CPUs specified by
the "nohz_full" kernel boot parameter are also offloaded.
The offloaded CPUs will never queue RCU callbacks, and therefore RCU
never prevents offloaded CPUs from entering either dyntick-idle mode

help
This option permits CPUs to enter dynticks-idle state even if
they have RCU callbacks queued, and prevents RCU from waking
these CPUs up more than roughly once every four jiffies (by
default, you can adjust this using the rcutree.rcu_idle_gp_delay
parameter), thus improving energy efficiency. On the other
hand, this option increases the duration of RCU grace periods,
for example, slowing down synchronize_rcu().
Say Y if energy efficiency is critically important, and you
don't care about increased grace-period durations.
Say N if you are unsure.
