From: Joerg Roedel <jroe...@suse.de>

When assigning devices to large memory guests (>=128GB guest
memory in the failure case) the functions to create the
IOMMU page-tables for the whole guest might run for a very
long time. On non-preemptible kernels this might cause
Soft-Lockup warnings. Fix these by adding a cond_resched()
to the mapping and unmapping loops.

This file is already gone after one latest commit c274e03af705, "kvm: x86: move assigned-dev.c and iommu.c to arch/x86/" is introduced, so you need to pull your tree firstly :)
