From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> This commit adds a locktorture.acq_writer_lim module parameter that specifies the maximum number of jiffies that is expected to be consumed by write-side lock acquisition. If this limit is exceeded, a WARN_ONCE() causes a splat. Note that this limit applies to the main lock acquisition only, not to any nested acquisitions. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
