Subject: [PATCH 4.4 98/99] btrfs: Relinquish CPUs in btrfs_compare_trees

From: Nikolay Borisov <nborisov@...e.com>

commit 6af112b11a4bc1b560f60a618ac9c1dcefe9836e upstream.

When doing any form of incremental send the parent and the child trees
need to be compared via btrfs_compare_trees. This  can result in long
loop chains without ever relinquishing the CPU. This causes softlockup
detector to trigger when comparing trees with a lot of items. Example
report:

watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 24s! [snapperd:16153]
CPU: 0 PID: 16153 Comm: snapperd Not tainted 5.2.9-1-default #1 openSUSE Tumbleweed (unreleased)

Fix this by adding a call to cond_resched at the beginning of the main
loop in btrfs_compare_trees.
