[ Upstream commit e47110e905 ]
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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
