[PATCH 5.4 18/24] blk-cgroup: Use cond_resched() when destroy blkgs

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

From: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com>

[ Upstream commit 6c635caef410aa757befbd8857c1eadde5cc22ed ]

On !PREEMPT kernel, we can get below softlockup when doing stress
testing with creating and destroying block cgroup repeatly. The
reason is it may take a long time to acquire the queue's lock in
the loop of blkcg_destroy_blkgs(), or the system can accumulate a
huge number of blkgs in pathological cases. We can add a need_resched()
check on each loop and release locks and do cond_resched() if true
to avoid this issue, since the blkcg_destroy_blkgs() is not called
from atomic contexts.
