kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: conditionaly release the write lock on fs_changed()
The goal of fs_changed() is to check whether the tree changed during a
schedule(). This is a BKL legacy.
A recent patch added an explicit unconditional release/reacquire of the
write lock around the cond_resched() called inside fs_changed.
But it's wasteful to unconditionally do that, we are creating superfluous
lock contention in !TIF_NEED_RESCHED case.
This patch manage that by calling reiserfs_cond_resched() from fs_changed()
which only releases the lock if we are going to reschedule.
[ Impact: inject less lock contention and tree job retries ]
