[PATCH tip/core/rcu 04/17] rcuperf: Warn on bad perf type for built-in tests

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Wed Aug 29 2018 - 17:48:00 EST


When running a built-in rcuperf test, specifying an invalid perf type
results in what looks like a hard hang, with the error messages hidden
by other boot-time output. This commit therefore executes a WARN_ON()
in this case so that the splat appears just following the error messages.
