Replace the manual sleep-and-retry logic in test_kmem_dead_cgroups()
with the new helper `cg_read_key_long_poll()`. This change improves
the robustness of the test by polling the "nr_dying_descendants"
counter in `cgroup.stat` until it reaches 0 or the timeout is exceeded.
Additionally, increase the retry timeout to 8 seconds (from 5 seconds)
based on testing results:
- With 5-second timeout: 4/20 runs passed.
- With 8-second timeout: 20/20 runs passed.
The 8 second timeout is based on stress testing of test_kmem_dead_cgroups()
under load: 5 seconds was occasionally not enough for reclaim of dying
descendants to complete, whereas 8 seconds consistently covered the observed
latencies. This value is intended as a generous upper bound for the
asynchronous reclaim and is not tied to any specific kernel constant, so it
can be adjusted in the future if reclaim behavior changes.
