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.
