| |
In a too-short test, random delays can cause each attempt to do forward-progress testing to fail to complete, thus resulting in spurious splats. This commit therefore requires at least five tries before complaining about rcutorture runs that failed to produce at least one valid forward-progress testing attempt. Note that actual forward-progress failures will splat regardless of the number of tries.
