[PATCH 5.10 575/575] SUNRPC: Partial revert of commit 6f9f17287e78

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Nov 15 2021 - 20:48:02 EST


From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ea7a1019d8baf8503ecd6e3ec8436dec283569e6 upstream.

The premise of commit 6f9f17287e78 ("SUNRPC: Mitigate cond_resched() in
xprt_transmit()") was that cond_resched() is expensive and unnecessary
when there has been just a single send.
The point of cond_resched() is to ensure that tasks that should pre-empt
this one get a chance to do so when it is safe to do so. The code prior
to commit 6f9f17287e78 failed to take into account that it was keeping a
rpc_task pinned for longer than it needed to, and so rather than doing a
full revert, let's just move the cond_resched.
