Subject: [PATCH v2] rslib: Add scheduling points during the test

The test has been prone to softlockup but stayed unnoticed because
of the printk calls during the test resets the soflockup watchdog by
calling touch_nmi_watchdog(). With the commit b63e6f60eab4 ("serial:
8250: Switch to nbcon console"), the printk calls no longer suppress
the softlockup and warnings can be observed more evidently that shows
the test needs more scheduling points.

Provide scheduling points by adding cond_resched() for each test
iteration on their up to/beyond error correction capacity.
