Certain configurations (e.g., systems that make heavy use of netns)
need to use synchronize_rcu_expedited() to service RCU grace periods
even after boot.

Even though synchronize_rcu_expedited() has been traditionally
considered harmful for RT for the heavy use of IPIs, it is perfectly
usable under certain conditions (e.g. nohz_full).

Make rcupdate.rcu_normal_after_boot= again writeable on RT, but keep
its default value to 1 (enabled) to avoid regressions. Users who need
synchronize_rcu_expedited() will boot with rcupdate.rcu_normal_after_
boot=0 in the kernel cmdline.
