Michal Hocko ccd35ba5eb memory_hotplug: cond_resched in __remove_pages 
commit dd33ad7b25 upstream.

We have received a bug report that unbinding a large pmem (>1TB) can
result in a soft lockup:

  NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#9 stuck for 23s! [ndctl:4365]
  [...]
  Supported: Yes

It has been reported on an older (4.12) kernel but the current upstream
code doesn't cond_resched in the hot remove code at all and the given
range to remove might be really large.  Fix the issue by calling
cond_resched once per memory section.

README 

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
