Joel Fernandes (Google) 3b745c8969 rcutorture: Make boost test more robust
Currently, with RCU_BOOST disabled, I get no failures when forcing
rcutorture to test RCU boost priority inversion. The reason seems to be
that we don't check for failures if the callback never ran at all for
the duration of the boost-test loop.

Further, the 'rtb' and 'rtbf' counters seem to be used inconsistently.
'rtb' is incremented at the start of each test and 'rtbf' is incremented
per-cpu on each failure of call_rcu. So its possible 'rtbf' > 'rtb'.

To test the boost with rcutorture, I did following on a 4-CPU x86 machine:

modprobe rcutorture  test_boost=2
sleep 20
rmmod rcutorture

With patch:
rtbf: 8 rtb: 12

Without patch:
rtbf: 0 rtb: 2

In summary this patch:
 - Increments failed and total test counters once per boost-test.
 - Checks for failure cases correctly.
