Subject[PATCH rcu v2 10/10] refscale: Move shutdown from wait_event() to wait_event_idle()
Date
From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@kernel.org>

The ref_scale_shutdown() kthread/function uses wait_event() to wait for
the refscale test to complete. However, although the read-side tests
are normally extremely fast, there is no law against specifying a very
large value for the refscale.loops module parameter or against having
a slow read-side primitive. Either way, this might well trigger the
hung-task timeout.

This commit therefore replaces those wait_event() calls with calls to
wait_event_idle(), which do not trigger the hung-task timeout.
