Hi Sasha,
There is a fix patch for this patch:
13ab183 mm/kmemleak.c: make cond_resched() rate-limiting more efficient
So if this patch is backported to stable, maybe the above patch is also need to be backported too.
Hi Yisheng,
This patch fixes a softlockup, while the patch you linked seems like an performance optimization for this patch, so I'd rather skip it unless you're aware of an actual issue it might fix.
