livepatch,sched: Add livepatch task switching to cond_resched()
There have been reports [1][2] of live patches failing to complete
within a reasonable amount of time due to CPU-bound kthreads.
Fix it by patching tasks in cond_resched().
There are four different flavors of cond_resched(), depending on the
kernel configuration. Hook into all of them.
A more elegant solution might be to use a preempt notifier. However,
non-ORC unwinders can't unwind a preempted task reliably.
