powerpc/pseries: explicitly reschedule during drmem_lmb list traversal
The drmem lmb list can have hundreds of thousands of entries, and
unfortunately lookups take the form of linear searches. As long as
this is the case, traversals have the potential to monopolize the CPU
and provoke lockup reports, workqueue stalls, and the like unless
they explicitly yield.
Rather than placing cond_resched() calls within various
for_each_drmem_lmb() loop blocks in the code, put it in the iteration
expression of the loop macro itself so users can't omit it.
Introduce a drmem_lmb_next() iteration helper function which calls
cond_resched() at a regular interval during array traversal. Each
iteration of the loop in DLPAR code paths can involve around ten RTAS
calls which can each take up to 250us, so this ensures the check is
performed at worst every few milliseconds.
