Saw need_resched() warnings when swapping on large swapfile (TBs)
because page allocation 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.

Hmm, but the page allocator makes sure to cond_resched for sleeping
allocations. I guess what you mean is something different. It is not the
allocation which took too look but there are too many of them and none
of them sleeps because there is enough memory and the allocator doesn't
sleep in that case. Right?

The patch itself makes sense to me, the changelog could see some
clarification but other than that

We should probably do the same on the error path.

Thanks, I'll clarify the problem in the commit message and resend the

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.
