Waiman Long 6edda04ccc mm/kmemleak: prevent soft lockup in first object iteration loop of kmemleak_scan()
The first RCU-based object iteration loop has to modify the object count. 
So we cannot skip taking the object lock.

One way to avoid soft lockup is to insert occasional cond_resched() call
into the loop.  This cannot be done while holding the RCU read lock which
is to protect objects from being freed.  However, taking a reference to
the object will prevent it from being freed.  We can then do a
cond_resched() call after every 64k objects safely.

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.
