rcu: Reduce rcutorture tracing
Currently, rcutorture traces every read-side access. This can be problematic because even a two-minute rcutorture run on a two-CPU system can generate 28,853,363 reads. Normally, only a failing read is of interest, so this commit traces adjusts rcutorture's tracing to only trace failing reads. The resulting event tracing records the time and the ->completed value captured at the beginning of the RCU read-side critical section, allowing correlation with other event-tracing messages.
