memremap: add scheduling point to devm_memremap_pages 

devm_memremap_pages is initializing struct pages in for_each_device_pfn
and that can take quite some time.  We have even seen a soft lockup
triggering on a non preemptive kernel

  NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#61 stuck for 22s! [kworker/u641:11:1808]
  [...]

fix this by adding cond_resched every 1024 pages.
