[PATCH] swap: scan_swap_map latency breaks
The get_swap_page/scan_swap_map latency can be so bad that even those without preemption configured deserve relief: periodically cond_resched. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
