selftests: cgroup: Allow longer timeout for kmem_dead_cgroups cleanup

The test_kmem_dead_cgroups test currently assumes that RCU and
memory reclaim will complete within 5 seconds. In some environments
this timeout may be insufficient, leading to spurious test failures.

This patch introduces max_time set to 20 which is then used in the
test. After 5th sec the debug message is printed to indicate the
cleanup is still ongoing.

In the system under test with 16 CPUs the original test was failing
most of the time and the cleanup time took usually approx. 6sec.
Further tests were conducted with and without do_rcu_barrier and the
results (respectively) are as follow:
quantiles 0  0.25  0.5  0.75  1
          1    2    3    8    20 (mean = 4.7667)
          3    5    8    8    20 (mean = 7.6667)
