rcutorture: Allow pointer leaks to test diagnostic code
This commit adds an rcutorture.leakpointer module parameter that intentionally leaks an RCU-protected pointer out of the RCU read-side critical section and checks to see if the corresponding grace period has elapsed, emitting a WARN_ON_ONCE() if so. This module parameter can be used to test facilities like CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD that end grace periods quickly. While in the area, also document rcutorture.irqreader, which was previously left out. Reported-by Jann Horn <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <[email protected]>
