list rcu_torture_freelist has been inited staticly through LIST_HEAD,
so there's no need to call another INIT_LIST_HEAD. Simply remove
it.

For kernels with built-in rcutorture that starts automatically at
boot, you are quite correct.

But wouldn't there be trouble in the case where someone does a series of
"modprobe rcutorture" "rmmod rcutorture" commands?
