Subject: lib: add stress test for ratelimit
Date: Wed, 9 Jul 2025 11:03:35 -0700

Add a simple stress test for lib/ratelimit.c

To run on x86:

	./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --arch x86_64 --kconfig_add CONFIG_RATELIMIT_KUNIT_TEST=y --kconfig_add CONFIG_SMP=y --qemu_args "-smp 4" lib_ratelimit

On a 16-CPU system, the "4" in "-smp 4" can be varied between 1 and 8. 
Larger numbers have higher probabilities of introducing delays that break
the smoke test.  In the extreme case, increasing the number to larger than
the number of CPUs in the underlying system is an excellent way to get a
test failure.
