torture: Allow inter-stutter interval to be specified
Currently, the inter-stutter interval is the same as the stutter duration, that is, whatever number of jiffies is passed into torture_stutter_init(). This has worked well for quite some time, but the addition of forward-progress testing to rcutorture can delay processes for several seconds, which can triple the time that they are stuttered. This commit therefore adds a second argument to torture_stutter_init() that specifies the inter-stutter interval. While locktorture preserves the current behavior, rcutorture uses the RCU CPU stall warning interval to provide a wider inter-stutter interval. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.ibm.com>
