Log:
Yield after processing a couple of vnodes to avoid running too long.
This fixes the stuttering of xmms et al when sync is running.

I have the feeling that just calling lwkt_yield() doesn't necessarily help. I still get the stutters. I'd need something to yield to runnable userland processes, not just processes with the same prio (I suspect we're running in a critical section here, rendering the yield futile)
