Subject: [PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 25/30] rcutorture: add random preemption

From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@...fujitsu.com>

Add random preemption to help we to torture the preemptable rcu.

srcu_read_delay() also calls rcu_read_delay() for shorter delays.

Added comment to preempt_schedule() call indicating that no quiescent
states happen if preemption is disabled.
