rcutorture: Start rcu_torture_writer() after rcu_torture_reader()

Testing of rcutorture's SRCU-P scenario on a large arm64 system resulted
in rcu_torture_writer() forward-progress failures, but these same tests
passed on x86.  After some off-list discussion of possible memory-ordering
causes for these failures, Boqun showed that these were in fact due to
reordering, but by the scheduler, not by the memory system.  On x86,
rcu_torture_writer() would have run quickly enough that by the time
the rcu_torture_updown() kthread started, the rcu_torture_current
variable would already be initialized, thus avoiding a bug in which
a NULL value would cause rcu_torture_updown() to do an extra call to
srcu_up_read_fast().

This commit therefore moves creation of the rcu_torture_writer() kthread
after that of the rcu_torture_reader() kthreads.  This results in
deterministic failures on x86.

What about the double-srcu_up_read_fast() bug?  Boqun has the fix.
But let's also fix the test while we are at it!
