torture: Make torture_stutter() use hrtimer
The torture_stutter() function uses schedule_timeout_interruptible() to time the stutter duration, but this can miss race conditions due to its being time-synchronized with everything else that is based on the timer wheels. This commit therefore converts torture_stutter() to use the high-resolution timers via schedule_hrtimeout(), and also to fuzz the stutter interval. While in the area, this commit also limits the spin-loop portion of the stutter_wait() function's wait loop to two jiffies, down from about one second. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
