[patch] mm, thp: copying user pages must schedule on collapse
From: David Rientjes
Date: Wed May 10 2017 - 17:27:31 EST
We have encountered need_resched warnings in __collapse_huge_page_copy()
while doing {clear,copy}_user_highpage() over HPAGE_PMD_NR source pages.
mm->mmap_sem is held for write, but the iteration is well bounded.
Reschedule as needed.
