[ Upstream commit 1a77557d48 ]
When under heavy load, network processing can run CPU-bound for many
tens of seconds. Even in preemptible kernels (non-RT kernel), this can
block RCU Tasks grace periods, which can cause trace-event removal to
take more than a minute, which is unacceptably long.
This commit therefore creates a new helper function that passes through
both RCU and RCU-Tasks quiescent states every 100 milliseconds. This
hard-coded value suffices for current workloads.
