From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> Currently, if rcu_torture_writer() sees fewer than ten grace periods having elapsed during a call to stutter_wait() that actually waited, the rtort_pipe_count warning is emitted. This has worked well for a long time. Except that the rcutorture TREE07 scenario now does a short-term 14-second RCU CPU stall, which can most definitely case false-positive rtort_pipe_count warnings. This commit therefore changes rcu_torture_writer() to compute the full expected holdoff and stall duration, and to refuse to report any rtort_pipe_count warnings until after all stalls have completed.
