rcu: Prevent initialization race in rcutorture kthreads
When you do something like "t = kthread_run(...)", it is possible that the kthread will start running before the assignment to "t" happens. If the child kthread expects to find a pointer to its task_struct in "t", it will then be fatally disappointed. This commit therefore switches such cases to kthread_create() followed by wake_up_process(), guaranteeing that the assignment happens before the child kthread starts running.
