4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Yu Zhao <[email protected]> commit ef70762948dde012146926720b70e79736336764 upstream. I saw need_resched() warnings when swapping on large swapfile (TBs) because continuously allocating many pages in swap_cgroup_prepare() took too long. We already cond_resched when freeing page in swap_cgroup_swapoff(). Do the same for the page allocation.
