rcu: Consolidate debugging Kconfig options
The RCU-related debugging Kconfig options are in two different places, and consume too much screen real estate. This commit therefore consolidates them into their own menu. Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
