[PATCH] mm/swapfile: add cond_resched() in get_swap_pages()

[Longlong Xia]

The softlockup still occurs in get_swap_pages() under memory pressure.
64 CPU cores, 64GB memory, and 28 zram devices, the disksize of each
zram device is 50MB with same priority as si. Use the stress-ng tool
to increase memory pressure, causing the system to oom frequently.

The plist_for_each_entry_safe() loops in get_swap_pages() could reach
tens of thousands of times to find available space (extreme case:
cond_resched() is not called in scan_swap_map_slots()). Let's add
cond_resched() into get_swap_pages() when failed to find available
space to avoid softlockup.
