rcutorture: remove synchronize_rcu from readers
This gives much worse numbers for readers, especially if synchronize_rcu is made more expensive as is the case with --enable-membarrier. Before: $ tests/rcutorture 10 stress 10 n_reads: 98304 n_updates: 529 n_mberror: 0 rcu_stress_count: 98302 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 After: $ tests/rcutorture 10 stress 10 n_reads: 165158482 n_updates: 429 n_mberror: 0 rcu_stress_count: 165154364 4118 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
