From: Roy Novich <royno@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 2808b37b59288ad8f1897e3546c2296df3384b65 ] For a single CPU system, the kernel thread executing mlx5_cmd_flush() never releases the CPU but calls down_trylock(&cmd→sem) in a busy loop. On a single processor system, this leads to a deadlock as the kernel thread which executes mlx5_cmd_invoke() never gets scheduled. Fix this, by adding the cond_resched() call to the loop, allow the command completion kernel thread to execute.
