Subject[PATCH v3 1/2] timers: Implement usleep_idle_range()
Date
Some kernel threads such as DAMON could need to repeatedly sleep in
micro seconds level. Because usleep_range() sleeps in uninterruptible
state, however, such threads would make /proc/loadavg reports fake load.

To help such cases, this commit implements a variant of usleep_range()
called usleep_idle_range(). It is same to usleep_range() but sets the
state of the current task as TASK_IDLE while sleeping.
