Subject: [PATCH] rcu-tasks: Use schedule_hrtimeout_range() while waiting for
 the gp.

References: SLE Realtime Extension
Patch-mainline: Queued in subsystem maintainer repository
Git-commit: a31fc08b04317349e6418b4ec6c9af106239f0d6
Git-repo: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git

The RCU selftest is using schedule_timeout_idle() which fails on
PREEMPT_RT because it is used early in boot-up phase an which point
ksoftirqd is not yet ready and is required for the timer to expire.

To avoid this lockup, use schedule_hrtimeout() and let the timer expire
in hardirq context. This is ensures that the timer fires even on
PREEMPT_RT without any further requirement.

The timer is set to expire between fract and fract + HZ / 2 jiffies in
order to minimize the amount of extra wake ups and to allign with
possible other timer which expire within this window.
