Zheng Yejian 53e7c559b7 ring-buffer: Avoid softlockup in ring_buffer_resize()
[ Upstream commit f6bd2c9248 ]

When user resize all trace ring buffer through file 'buffer_size_kb',
then in ring_buffer_resize(), kernel allocates buffer pages for each
cpu in a loop.

If the kernel preemption model is PREEMPT_NONE and there are many cpus
and there are many buffer pages to be allocated, it may not give up cpu
for a long time and finally cause a softlockup.

To avoid it, call cond_resched() after each cpu buffer allocation.
