Yeah, that will be somewhat tricky. But I think we can modify the standard
iget-iput dance like:

		if (need_resched()) {
			spin_lock(&inode->i_lock);
			if (inode->i_state & (I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE|I_NEW)) {
				/*
				 * Cannot break on this inode, need to do one
				 * more.
				 */
				spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock);
				continue;
			}
			__iget(inode);
			spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock);
			spin_unlock(&sb->s_inode_list_lock);
			iput(put_inode);
			put_inode = inode;
			cond_resched();
			spin_lock(&sb->s_inode_list_lock);
		}
	...
	iput(put_inode);

Will you transform this into a proper patch in your series or should I do
it?
