[PATCH tip/core/rcu 13/13] rcutorture: Invoke call_rcu() from timer handler

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Jul 24 2017 - 18:24:41 EST


The Linux kernel invokes call_rcu() from various interrupt/softirq
handlers, but rcutorture does not. This commit therefore adds this
behavior to rcutorture's repertoire.
