Subject: [PATCH 4.4 42/46] proc: add a schedule point in proc_pid_readdir()

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>


[ Upstream commit 3ba4bceef23206349d4130ddf140819b365de7c8 ]

We have seen proc_pid_readdir() invocations holding cpu for more than 50
ms.  Add a cond_resched() to be gentle with other tasks.
