[PATCH rcu 05/18] rcutorture: Use finer-grained timeouts for rcu_torture_writer() polling

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Thu Dec 12 2024 - 13:50:30 EST


The rcu_torture_writer() polling currently uses timeouts ranging from
zero to 16 milliseconds to wait for the polled grace period to end.
This works, but it would be better to have a higher probability of
exercising races with the code that cleans up after a grace period.
This commit therefore switches from these millisecond-scale timeouts
to timeouts ranging from zero to 128 microseconds, and with a full
microsecond's worth of timeout fuzz.
