Vijay reported that the "unclobbered_vdso_oversubscribed" selftest triggers the softlockup detector.
Actual SGX systems have 128GB of enclave memory or more. The "unclobbered_vdso_oversubscribed" selftest creates one enclave which consumes all of the enclave memory on the system. Tearing down such a large enclave takes around a minute, most of it in the loop where the EREMOVE instruction is applied to each individual 4k enclave page.
Spending one minute in a loop triggers the softlockup detector.
Add a cond_resched() to give other tasks a chance to run and placate the softlockup detector.

I'd add a comment, e.g.
/* Invoke scheduler to prevent soft lockups. */
Other than that makes sense.

I could do that. I would like to point out though that there are already six other usages of cond_resched() in the driver and it does indeed seem to be the common pattern. When adding this comment to the now seventh usage it would be the first comment documenting the usage of cond_resched() in the driver.
Other than that makes sense.
Thank you very much for taking a look.

Well, I believe in inline comments to evolution. As in here it was missing, a reminder makes sense.

E.g. there gazillion uses of kmalloc() in kernel but still not all of them have a comment bound to them...
