There is no need to call cond_resched() in ext4_trim_all_free() since
blkdev_issue_discard() already takes care of that. So just remove it.
Actually, it could be needed.  If minblocks is a small value, say 2,
and every other block in file system is allocated, then we could be in
the while loop for a long time.  That's a pretty unusual case, but
it's good to have the need_resched() check there.

Fair enough, it's unusuall case, but still possible. Let's keep it this
way.

Thanks!
