[LTP] [PATCH v2 2/2] keyctl02: Add delay between main loop iterations for RT kernels

[Martin Doucha]

Realtime kernels have deferred thread cleanup which means that
exited and joined threads can still pile up and trigger cgroup
thread limits. Add 100us delay on RT kernels to limit the maximum
number of stale threads.

Changes since v1:
- Moved KCONFIG_INIT() macro to include/tst_kconfig.h (see patch 1)
- Changed variable type to unsigned to prevent compiler warning in setup()
