commit 9aa272b492e7551a9ee0e2c83c720ea013698485 upstream.

Running mtd-utils/tests/ubi-tests/io_basic.c could cause
soft lockup or watchdog reset. It is because *updatevol*
will perform ubi_check_volume() after updating finish
and this function will full scan the updated lebs if the
volume is initialized as STATIC_VOLUME.

This patch adds *cond_resched()* in the loop of lebs scan
to avoid soft lockup.
