In normal production, an excessively long wait on a grace period (synchronize_rcu(), for example) at boottime is often just as bad as at any other time. In fact, given the desire for fast boot, any sort of long wait at boot is a bad idea. However, heavy rcutorture testing on large hyperthreaded systems can generate such long waits during boot as a matter of course. This commit therefore causes the rcupdate.rcu_cpu_stall_suppress_at_boot kernel boot parameter to suppress reporting of bootime bad-sequence warning due to excessively long grace-period waits.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
