memremap: add scheduling point to devm_memremap_pages
devm_memremap_pages is initializing struct pages in for_each_device_pfn and that can take quite some time. We have even seen a soft lockup triggering on a non preemptive kernel NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#61 stuck for 22s! [kworker/u641:11:1808] [...] RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8118b6b7>] [<ffffffff8118b6b7>] devm_memremap_pages+0x327/0x430 [...] Call Trace: pmem_attach_disk+0x2fd/0x3f0 [nd_pmem] nvdimm_bus_probe+0x64/0x110 [libnvdimm] driver_probe_device+0x1f7/0x420 bus_for_each_drv+0x52/0x80 __device_attach+0xb0/0x130 bus_probe_device+0x87/0xa0 device_add+0x3fc/0x5f0 nd_async_device_register+0xe/0x40 [libnvdimm] async_run_entry_fn+0x43/0x150 process_one_work+0x14e/0x410 worker_thread+0x116/0x490 kthread+0xc7/0xe0 ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 fix this by adding cond_resched every 1024 pages.
