kfence: test: try to avoid test_gfpzero trigger rcu_stall

When CONFIG_KFENCE_NUM_OBJECTS is set to a big number, kfence
kunit-test-case test_gfpzero will eat up nearly all the CPU's resources
and rcu_stall is reported as the following log which is cut from a
physical server.

  rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU

To avoid rcu_stall and unacceptable latency, a schedule point is
added to test_gfpzero.
