lkdtm: Provide timing tests for atomic_t vs refcount_t
While not a crash test, this does provide two tight atomic_t and
refcount_t loops for performance comparisons:
cd /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash
perf stat -B -- cat <(echo ATOMIC_TIMING) > DIRECT
perf stat -B -- cat <(echo REFCOUNT_TIMING) > DIRECT
Looking a CPU cycles is the best way to example the fast-path (rather
than instruction counts, since conditional jumps will be executed but
will be negligible due to branch-prediction).
