Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 06/15] Input: evdev - add a schedule point in evdev_write()
Date
From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 36d2582ff235b4e01ad64a734c877a52dc762d9c ]

Large writes to evdev interface may cause rcu stalls. Let's add
cond_resched() to the loop to avoid this.
