I do not see any actual problem TBH. cond_resched is mostly to increase interactivity for non preemptible kernel. It can reduce throughput but this is a memory reclaim path and I do not expect this to contribute to any moderate hot paths. Direct reclaim doesn't really count as a hot path. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs
