x86/sgx: Break up long non-preemptible delays in sgx_vepc_release()
On large enclaves we hit the softlockup warning with following call trace:
xa_erase()
sgx_vepc_release()
__fput()
task_work_run()
do_exit()
The latency issue is similar to the one fixed in:
8795359e35bc ("x86/sgx: Silence softlockup detection when releasing large enclaves")
The test system has 64GB of enclave memory, and all is assigned to a single VM.
Release of 'vepc' takes a longer time and causes long latencies, which triggers
the softlockup warning.
Add cond_resched() to give other tasks a chance to run and reduce
latencies, which also avoids the softlockup detector.
[ mingo: Rewrote the changelog. ]
Fixes: 540745ddbc70 ("x86/sgx: Introduce virtual EPC for use by KVM guests")
