Dietmar Eggemann aac54ca1a6 torture: Add lock_torture writer_fifo module parameter
[ Upstream commit 5d248bb39f ]

This commit adds a module parameter that causes the locktorture writer
to run at real-time priority.

To use it:
insmod /lib/modules/torture.ko random_shuffle=1
insmod /lib/modules/locktorture.ko torture_type=mutex_lock rt_boost=1 rt_boost_factor=50 nested_locks=3 writer_fifo=1
													^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A predecessor to this patch has been helpful to uncover issues with the
proxy-execution series.
