From 9c029b86098decd4660eec511b8d2d42da3e7dd9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Tue, 4 Feb 2014 11:47:08 -0800 Subject: rcutorture: Abstract torture_stop_kthread() Stopping of kthreads is not RCU-specific, so this commit abstracts out torture_stop_kthread(), saving a few lines of code in the process.
