This rcu_bh torture type is gone completely in mainline, however,
I just yesterday queued a patch to fix some problems when an invalid
torture_type was specified.

Mainline 4.19 does have the .name element of rcu_bh_ops specified,
though.  Not sure what happened here, but you are absolutely
correct that rcu_bh_ops does need a .name initializer.
