Eric Sandeen 16b730a459 fs: avoid softlockups in s_inodes iterators
[ Upstream commit 04646aebd3 ]

Anything that walks all inodes on sb->s_inodes list without rescheduling
risks softlockups.

Previous efforts were made in 2 functions, see:

c27d82f fs/drop_caches.c: avoid softlockups in drop_pagecache_sb()
ac05fbb inode: don't softlockup when evicting inodes

but there hasn't been an audit of all walkers, so do that now.  This
also consistently moves the cond_resched() calls to the bottom of each
loop in cases where it already exists.

One loop remains: remove_dquot_ref(), because I'm not quite sure how
to deal with that one w/o taking the i_lock.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
