Subject: [PATCH] ftrace: add cond resched to ftrace_graph_set_hash

When the kernel contains a large number of symbos,loop in
ftrace_graph_set_hash function may take a lot of time to
execute.This may trigger softlockup watchdog.

Add cond _resched within loop. This ensures  the kernel
remains responsive even when processing a large number of symbols.
