Darrick J. Wong 58a4661896 xfs: periodically yield scrub threads to the scheduler
[ Upstream commit 5d1116d4c6 ]

Christoph Hellwig complained about the following soft lockup warning
when running scrub after generic/175 when preemption is disabled and
slub debugging is enabled:

watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 22s! [xfs_scrub:161]

If preemption is disabled, all metadata buffers needed to perform the
scrub are already in memory, and there are a lot of records to check,
it's possible that the scrub thread will run for an extended period of
time without sleeping for IO or any other reason.  Then the watchdog
timer or the RCU stall timeout can trigger, producing the backtrace
above.

To fix this problem, call cond_resched() from the scrub thread so that
we back out to the scheduler whenever necessary.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
