reboot_cpu is s[mp]#### with #### being the processor
to be used for rebooting.

+ refperf.holdoff= [KNL]
+ Set test-start holdoff period. The purpose of
+ this parameter is to delay the start of the
+ test until boot completes in order to avoid
+ interference.
+
+ refperf.loops= [KNL]
+ Set the number of loops over the synchronization
+ primitive under test. Increasing this number
+ reduces noise due to loop start/end overhead,
+ but the default has already reduced the per-pass
+ noise to a handful of picoseconds on ca. 2020
+ x86 laptops.
+
+ refperf.nreaders= [KNL]
+ Set number of readers. The default value of -1
+ selects N, where N is roughly 75% of the number
+ of CPUs. A value of zero is an interesting choice.
+
+ refperf.nruns= [KNL]
+ Set number of runs, each of which is dumped onto
+ the console log.
+
+ refperf.readdelay= [KNL]
+ Set the read-side critical-section duration,
+ measured in microseconds.
+
+ refperf.shutdown= [KNL]
+ Shut down the system at the end of the performance
+ test. This defaults to 1 (shut it down) when
+ rcuperf is built into the kernel and to 0 (leave
+ it running) when rcuperf is built as a module.
+
+ refperf.verbose= [KNL]
+ Enable additional printk() statements.
+
relax_domain_level=
[KNL, SMP] Set scheduler's default relax_domain_level.
