Since wait_event() uses TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE by default, waiting for an allocation counts towards load. However, for KFENCE, this does not make any sense, since there is no busy work we're awaiting. Instead, use TASK_IDLE via wait_event_idle() to not count towards load.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
