Instead of scrubbing pages while holding heap lock we can mark buddy's head as being scrubbed and drop the lock temporarily. If someone (most likely alloc_heap_pages()) tries to access this chunk it will signal the scrubber to abort scrub by setting head's PAGE_SCRUB_ABORT bit. The scrubber checks this bit after processing each page and stops its work as soon as it sees it.
