The various RCU tasks flavors currently wait 100 milliseconds between each grace period in order to prevent CPU-bound loops and to favor efficiency over latency. However, RCU Tasks Trace needs to have a grace-period latency of roughly 25 milliseconds, which is completely infeasible given the 100-millisecond per-grace-period sleep. This commit therefore reduces this sleep duration to 5 milliseconds (or one jiffy, whichever is longer) in kernels built with CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU_READ_MB=y.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
