In linux kernel since version 5.2 (release Date: 2019-07-07)
Use a deferrable timer to trigger allocations. This avoids forcing
CPU wake-ups if the system is idle, at the risk of a less predictable
sample interval.
Warning: The KUnit test suite fails with this option enabled - due to
the unpredictability of the sample interval!
Say N if you are unsure.
