We see system hang in ext3 jbd code
when Linux install program anaconda copying
packages.
That is because anaconda is invoked from linuxrc
in initrd when system_state is still SYSTEM_BOOTING.
Thus the cond_resched checks in journal_commit_transaction
will always return 1 without actually schedule,
then the system fall into deadloop.
The patch will fix the issue.
