rcutorture: Avoid RCU CPU stall warning and RT throttling
Running rcuperf can result in RCU CPU stall warnings and RT throttling. These occur because on of the real-time writer processes does ftrace_dump() while still running at real-time priority. This commit therefore prevents these problems by setting the writer thread back to SCHED_NORMAL (AKA SCHED_OTHER) before doing ftrace_dump(). In addition, this commit adds a small fixed delay before dumping ftrace buffer in order to decrease the probability that this dumping will interfere with other writers' grace periods.
