When I run the ltp testcase(ltp/testcases/kernel/pty/pty04.c) with arm64, there is a soft lockup,
which look like this one:
Call trace:
dump_backtrace+0x0/0x1ec
show_stack+0x24/0x30
dump_stack+0xd0/0x128
panic+0x15c/0x374

slip_unesc+0x80/0x214 [slip]
tty_ldisc_receive_buf+0x64/0x80
tty_port_default_receive_buf+0x50/0x90
flush_to_ldisc+0xbc/0x110
process_one_work+0x1d4/0x4b0
worker_thread+0x180/0x430
kthread+0x11c/0x120
In the testcase pty04, The first process call the write syscall to send data to the pty master.
At the same time, the workqueue will do the flush_to_ldisc to pop data in a loop until there is
no more data left. When the sender and workqueue running in different core, the sender sends data
fastly in full time which will result in workqueue doing work in loop for a long time and occuring
softlockup in flush_to_ldisc with kernel configured without CONFIG_PREEMPT. So I add need_resched
check and cond_resched in the flush_to_ldisc loop to avoid it.
