nommu: yield CPU while disposing VM


commit 04c34961 upstream.

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.
