From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@kernel.org>
If a CPU runs throughout the stalled grace period without passing
through a quiescent state, RCU priority boosting cannot help.
The rcu_torture_boost_failed() function therefore prints a message
flagging the first such CPU. However, if the stall was instead due to
(for example) RCU's grace-period kthread being starved of CPU, there will
be no such CPU, causing rcu_check_boost_fail() to instead pass back -1
through its cpup CPU-pointer parameter.
Therefore, the current message complains about a mythical CPU -1.
This commit therefore checks for this situation, and notes that all CPUs
have passed through a quiescent state.
