The RCU documentation contains old-style cross references which
do not follow the best practices outlined in doc-guide/sphinx.rst.
In addition, some of the cross references use URLs that should be replaced
by pathnames.
Update all of these cross references and adjust the surrounding words.
Summary of changes:
- out-of-date plaintext file names (*.txt) -> *.rst
- references by :ref: tags -> path names of *.rst
* use relative paths to .rst files under the RCU/ subdirectory
* use abs paths of Documentation/xxx for other .rst files
- references by URL under https://www.kernel.org/ -> paths of *.rst
- adjust surrounding words of some of updated references.
Note:
The automarkup.py script interprets references via "*.txt" as if they
were via "*.rst", so the *.txt -> *.rst changes should be regarded as
cleanups rather than bug fixes.

The reader-writer-lock analogy is a useful way to think about RCU, but
it is not always applicable. It is useful to have other analogies to
work with, and particularly to emphasise that no single analogy is
perfect.
This patch add a "RCU as reference count" to the "what is RCU" document.

CONFIG_PREEMPTION is selected by CONFIG_PREEMPT and by CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT.
Both PREEMPT and PREEMPT_RT require the same functionality which today
depends on CONFIG_PREEMPT.
Update the documents and mention CONFIG_PREEMPTION. Spell out
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT (instead PREEMPT_RT) since it is an option now.
