[PATCH v2 07/12] rcutorture: Comment invocations of tick_dep_set_task()

["Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@kernel.org>]

The rcu_torture_reader() and rcu_torture_fwd_prog_cr() functions
run CPU-bound for extended periods of time (tens or even
hundreds of milliseconds), so they invoke tick_dep_set_task() and
tick_dep_clear_task() to ensure that the scheduling-clock tick helps
move grace periods forward.

So why doesn't rcu_torture_fwd_prog_nr() also invoke tick_dep_set_task()
and tick_dep_clear_task()?  Because the point of this function is to test
RCU's ability to (eventually) force grace periods forward even when the
tick has been disabled during long CPU-bound kernel execution.
