[PATCH 5.6 173/254] dm writecache: add cond_resched to avoid CPU hangs
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Apr 16 2020 - 10:26:45 EST
From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 1edaa447d958bec24c6a79685a5790d98976fd16 upstream.
Initializing a dm-writecache device can take a long time when the
persistent memory device is large. Add cond_resched() to a few loops
to avoid warnings that the CPU is stuck.
