That's not a good idea IMO, it's an invitation for accelerated rate bitrot 
turning cond_resched() meaningless very quickly.

We should remove cond_resched() - but probably not as the first step. They 
are conceptually independent of NEED_RESCHED_LAZY and we don't *have to* 
remove them straight away.

By removing cond_resched() separately there's an easily bisectable point to 
blame for any longer latencies on legacy platforms, should any of them 
still be used with recent kernels.
