Subject: [PATCH rcu 2/2] torture: Add lock_torture writer_fifo module parameter
Date:   Thu, 27 Jul 2023 20:22:32 -0700

This commit adds a module parameter that causes the locktorture writer
to run at real-time priority.

To use it:
insmod /lib/modules/torture.ko random_shuffle=1
insmod /lib/modules/locktorture.ko torture_type=mutex_lock rt_boost=1 rt_boost_factor=50 nested_locks=3 writer_fifo=1
													^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A predecessor to this patch has been helpful to uncover issues with the
proxy-execution series.

[ paulmck: Remove locktorture-specific code from kernel/torture.c. ]
