    rcu: Add PROVE_RCU_DELAY to provoke difficult races · e3ebfb96
    Paul E. McKenney authored Jul 02, 2012
    
    
    There have been some recent bugs that were triggered only when
    preemptible RCU's __rcu_read_unlock() was preempted just after setting
    ->rcu_read_lock_nesting to INT_MIN, which is a low-probability event.
    Therefore, reproducing those bugs (to say nothing of gaining confidence
    in alleged fixes) was quite difficult.  This commit therefore creates
    a new debug-only RCU kernel config option that forces a short delay
    in __rcu_read_unlock() to increase the probability of those sorts of
    bugs occurring.
