[ Upstream commit e60c122a1614b4f65b29a7bef9d83b9fd30e937a ]
The rcuscale.holdoff module parameter can be used to delay the start of rcu_scale_writer() kthread. However, the hung-task timeout will trigger when the timeout specified by rcuscale.holdoff is greater than hung_task_timeout_secs:
runqemu kvm nographic slirp qemuparams="-smp 4 -m 2048M" bootparams="rcuscale.shutdown=0 rcuscale.holdoff=300"

This commit therefore replaces schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() with schedule_timeout_idle().
