Yisheng Xie bde5f6bc68 kmemleak: add scheduling point to kmemleak_scan()
kmemleak_scan() will scan struct page for each node and it can be really
large and resulting in a soft lockup.  We have seen a soft lockup when
do scan while compile kernel:

  watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#53 stuck for 22s! [bash:10287]
 [...]
  Call Trace:
   kmemleak_scan+0x21a/0x4c0
   kmemleak_write+0x312/0x350
   full_proxy_write+0x5a/0xa0
   __vfs_write+0x33/0x150
   vfs_write+0xad/0x1a0
   SyS_write+0x52/0xc0
   do_syscall_64+0x61/0x1a0
   entry_SYSCALL64_slow_path+0x25/0x25

Fix this by adding cond_resched every MAX_SCAN_SIZE.

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.
