RDMA/hns: Fix soft lockup during bt pages loop
Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/hns: Fix soft lockup during bt pages loop Driver runs a for-loop when allocating bt pages and mapping them with buffer pages. When a large buffer (e.g. MR over 100GB) is being allocated, it may require a considerable loop count. This will lead to soft lockup: watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#27 stuck for 22s! ... Call trace: hem_list_alloc_mid_bt+0x124/0x394 [hns_roce_hw_v2] hns_roce_hem_list_request+0xf8/0x160 [hns_roce_hw_v2] hns_roce_mtr_create+0x2e4/0x360 [hns_roce_hw_v2] alloc_mr_pbl+0xd4/0x17c [hns_roce_hw_v2] hns_roce_reg_user_mr+0xf8/0x190 [hns_roce_hw_v2] ib_uverbs_reg_mr+0x118/0x290 watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#35 stuck for 23s! ...

In order not to affect the allocation performance of normal-size buffer, set the loop count of a 100GB MR as the threshold to call cond_resched().
