[PATCH] powerpc/mm: Add cond_resched() while removing hpte mappings

[Vaibhav Jain]

While removing large number of mappings from hash page tables for
large memory systems as soft-lockup is reported because of the time
spent inside htap_remove_mapping() like one below:

 watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#8 stuck for 23s!
 <snip>
 NIP plpar_hcall+0x38/0x58
 LR  pSeries_lpar_hpte_invalidate+0x68/0xb0
 Call Trace:

  vfs_write+0xd4/0x270
  ksys_write+0xdc/0x130
  system_call+0x5c/0x70

Fix this by adding a cond_resched() to the loop in
htap_remove_mapping() that issues hcall to remove hpte mapping. This
should prevent the soft-lockup from being reported.
