[PATCH tip/core/rcu 30/55] rcutorture: Abstract stutter_wait()

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Feb 17 2014 - 17:24:25 EST


From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Because stuttering the test load (stopping and restarting it) is useful
for non-RCU testing, this commit moves the load-stuttering functionality
to kernel/torture.c.
