[PATCH tip/core/rcu 05/20] rcutorture: Preempt RCU-preempt readers more vigorously

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Fri Dec 01 2017 - 15:12:39 EST


This commit attempts to make a very rare rcutorture failure happen
more often by increasing the fraction of RCU-preempt read-side critical
sections that are preempted.
