From: Qu Wenruo <wqu@xxxxxxxx> commit ea0eba69a2a8125229b1b6011644598039bc53aa upstream. There is a user report about "btrfs filesystem defrag" causing 120s timeout problem. For btrfs_defrag_file() it will iterate all file extents if called from defrag ioctl, thus it can take a long time. There is no reason not to release the CPU during such a long operation. Add cond_resched() after defragged one cluster.
