Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 11/26] fs/btrfs: Add cond_resched() for try_release_extent_mapping() stalls

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...nel.org>

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.
