rcu: Force DEFAULT_RCU_BLIMIT to 1000 for strict RCU GPs
The value of DEFAULT_RCU_BLIMIT is normally set to 10, the idea being to avoid needless response-time degradation due to RCU callback invocation. However, when CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y it is better to avoid throttling callback execution in order to better detect pointer leaks from RCU read-side critical sections. This commit therefore sets the value of DEFAULT_RCU_BLIMIT to 1000 in kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y. Reported-by Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
