rcu: Clean up code based on review feedback from Josh Triplett, part 2

These issues identified during an old-fashioned face-to-face code
review extending over many hours.

o	Add comments for tricky parts of code, and correct comments
	that have passed their sell-by date.

o	Get rid of the vestiges of rcu_init_sched(), which is no
	longer needed now that PREEMPT_RCU is gone.

o	Move the #include of rcutree_plugin.h to the end of
	rcutree.c, which means that, rather than having a random
	collection of forward declarations, the new set of forward
	declarations document the set of plugins.  The new home for
	this #include also allows __rcu_init_preempt() to move into
	rcutree_plugin.h.

o	Fix rcu_preempt_check_callbacks() to be static.
