From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paul...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
The current lock_torture_writer() spends too much time sleeping and not
enough time hammering locks, as in an eight-CPU test will often only be
utilizing a CPU or two. This commit therefore makes lock_torture_writer()
sleep less and hammer more.
