Paul E. McKenney 837d59cc02 fs/btrfs: Add cond_resched() for try_release_extent_mapping() stalls
[ Upstream commit 9f47eb5461 ]

Very large I/Os can cause the following RCU CPU stall warning:

On a PREEMPT=n kernel, the try_release_extent_mapping() function's
"while" loop might run for a very long time on a large I/O.  This commit
therefore adds a cond_resched() to this loop, providing RCU any needed
quiescent states.

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.
