Subject: [PATCH] dma-debug: fix soft lockup when a lot of debug are enabled

When running a kernel in qemu with enough debugging options (slub-debug,
ftrace, kcov, kasan, ubsan, ...) enabled together, that results in a
slow initcall. So a 'watchdog: BUG: soft lockup' happens:

Rework to call cond_resched(), in the function prealloc_memory()'s
for-loop.
