scftorture: Implement weighted primitive selection
This commit uses the scftorture.weight* kernel parameters to randomly chooses between smp_call_function_single(), smp_call_function_many(), and smp_call_function(). For each variant, it also randomly chooses whether to invoke it synchronously (wait=1) or asynchronously (wait=0). The percentage weighting for each option are dumped to the console log (search for "scf_sel_dump"). This accumulates statistics, which a later commit will dump out at the end of the run.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
