Subject: [PATCH 5.4 09/18] idr test suite: Take RCU read lock in idr_find_test_1

From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@...radead.org>

[ Upstream commit 703586410da69eb40062e64d413ca33bd735917a ]

When run on a single CPU, this test would frequently access already-freed
memory.  Due to timing, this bug never showed up on multi-CPU tests.
