[PATCH tip/core/rcu 03/17] rcutorture: Warn on bad torture type for built-in tests

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Wed Aug 29 2018 - 17:49:22 EST


When running a built-in rcutorture test, specifying an invalid torture
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.
