Subject: rcu: Make rcu_torture_fqs() exit loops at end of test
X-Git-Tag: next-20110930~19^2~9
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=93898fb1a395d2a5a53db238c68036da2f8c64d1;p=karo-tx-linux.git

rcu: Make rcu_torture_fqs() exit loops at end of test

The rcu_torture_fqs() function can prevent the rcutorture tests from
completing, resulting in a hang.  This commit therefore ensures that
rcu_torture_fqs() will exit its inner loops at the end of the test,
and also applies the newish ULONG_CMP_LT() macro to time comparisons.
