In kvm_free_stage2_pgd() we don't hold the kvm->mmu_lock while calling
unmap_stage2_range() on the entire memory range for the guest. This could

unmap a range.

ok, then there's just the concern that we may be holding a spinlock for
a very long time. I seem to recall Mario once added something where he
unlocked and gave a chance to schedule something else for each PUD or
something like that, because he ran into the issue during migration. Am
I confusing this with something else?
That definitely rings a bell: stage2_wp_range() uses that kind of trick
to give the system a chance to breathe. Maybe we could use a similar
trick in our S2 unmapping code? How about this (completely untested) patch:

nit: I think we could make the cond_resched_lock() unconditionally here:
Given, __cond_resched_lock() already does all the above checks :
kernel/sched/core.c:
int __cond_resched_lock(spinlock_t *lock)
{
int resched = should_resched(PREEMPT_LOCK_OFFSET);
...
if (spin_needbreak(lock) || resched) {
