From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Rehashing and destroying large hash table takes a lot of time, and happens in process context. It is safe to add cond_resched() in rhashtable_rehash_table() and rhashtable_free_and_destroy() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
