Subject: [PATCH] mm/vunmap: Add cond_resched() in vunmap_pmd_range
Date: Fri,  7 Aug 2020 13:29:33 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200807075933.310240-1-aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

Like zap_pte_range add cond_resched so that we can avoid softlockups as reported
below. On non-preemptible kernel with large I/O map region (like the one we get
when using persistent memory with sector mode), an unmap of the namespace can report
below softlockups.
