[PATCH linux-next][RFC]torture: avoid offline tick_do_timer_cpu

[Zhouyi Zhou <zhouzhouyi@gmail.com>]

During CPU-hotplug torture (CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y), if we try to
offline tick_do_timer_cpu, the operation will fail because in
function tick_nohz_cpu_down:
```
if (tick_nohz_full_running && tick_do_timer_cpu == cpu)
      return -EBUSY;
```
Above bug was first discovered in torture tests performed in PPC VM
of Open Source Lab of Oregon State University, and reproducable in RISC-V
and X86-64 (with additional kernel commandline cpu0_hotplug).

In this patch, we avoid offline tick_do_timer_cpu by distribute
the offlining cpu among remaining cpus.
