From 04c3496152394d17e3bc2316f9731ee3e8a026bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven J. Magnani" Date: Wed, 24 Nov 2010 12:56:54 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] nommu: yield CPU while disposing VM Depending on processor speed, page size, and the amount of memory a process is allowed to amass, cleanup of a large VM may freeze the system for many seconds. This can result in a watchdog timeout. Make sure other tasks receive some service when cleaning up large VMs. Signed-off-by: Steven J.
