From: Joerg Roedel <jroe...@suse.de> When a memory bitmap is fully populated on a large memory machine (several TB of RAM) it can take more than a minute to walk through all bits. This causes the soft lockup detector on these machine to report warnings.
Avoid this by touching the soft lockup watchdog in the memory bitmap walking code.
