Subject[PATCH tip/core/rcu 05/28] torture: Make torture_stutter() use hrtimer
Date
From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@kernel.org>

The torture_stutter() function uses schedule_timeout_interruptible()
to time the stutter duration, but this can miss race conditions due to
its being time-synchronized with everything else that is based on the
timer wheels. This commit therefore converts torture_stutter() to use
the high-resolution timers via schedule_hrtimeout(), and also to fuzz
the stutter interval. While in the area, this commit also limits the
spin-loop portion of the stutter_wait() function's wait loop to two
jiffies, down from about one second.
