3.16.79-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Nikolay Borisov <nborisov@xxxxxxxx>
commit 6af112b11a4bc1b560f60a618ac9c1dcefe9836e upstream.
When doing any form of incremental send the parent and the child trees
need to be compared via btrfs_compare_trees. This can result in long
loop chains without ever relinquishing the CPU. This causes softlockup
detector to trigger when comparing trees with a lot of items. Example
report:
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 24s! [snapperd:16153]

Fix this by adding a call to cond_resched at the beginning of the main
loop in btrfs_compare_trees.
