fs_changed() is a macro used by reiserfs to check whether its tree has been rebalanced. It has been designed to check parallel changes on the tree after calling a sleeping function, which released the Bkl. fs_changed() also calls cond_resched(), so that if rescheduling is needed, we are in the best place to do that, since we check if the tree has changed just after (because of the bkl release on schedule()). Even if we are not anymore using the Bkl, we still want to release the lock while we reschedule, so that other waiters for the lock can acquire it safely, because of the following __fs_changed() check.
