[ Upstream commit1e1c50a929] do_chunk_alloc implements a loop checking whether there is a pending chunk allocation and if so causes the caller do loop. Generally this loop is executed only once, however testing with btrfs/072 on a single core vm machines uncovered an extreme case where the system could loop indefinitely. This is due to a missing cond_resched when loop which doesn't give a chance to the previous chunk allocator finish its job. The fix is to simply add the missing cond_resched.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
