Subject: fs: dcache: Use cpu_chill() in trylock loops
Git-repo: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git
Git-commit: 98861ce9d5db8c0ce3a1c952dfd3587c0068ffb8
Patch-mainline: Queued in subsystem maintainer repository
References: SLE Realtime Extension

Retry loops on RT might loop forever when the modifying side was
preempted. Use cpu_chill() instead of cpu_relax() to let the system
make progress.
