PATCH 12/27 set TASK_RUNNING in cond_resched()

do_select() does set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) then calls __pollwait() which calls __get_free_page() and the cond_resched() which I added to the pagecache reclaim code never returns.

The patch makes cond_resched() more useful by setting current->state to TASK_RUNNING before scheduling.
