Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 31/47] rcu: Make documentation give more realistic rcutorture duration

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

The torture.txt documentation gives an example rcutorture run with a
100-second duration.  This is ridiculously short, unless maybe testing
a fix for a egregious bug.  Use a more-realistic one-hour duration for
the example.
