Btrfs: don't monopolize a core when evicting inode

If an inode has a very large number of extent maps, we can spend
a lot of time freeing them, which triggers a soft lockup warning.
Therefore reschedule if we need to when freeing the extent maps
while evicting the inode.

I could trigger this all the time by running xfstests/generic/299 on
a file system with the no-holes feature enabled. That test creates
an inode with 11386677 extent maps.

    $ mkfs.btrfs -f -O no-holes $TEST_DEV
    $ MKFS_OPTIONS="-O no-holes" ./check generic/299
