Vlastimil Babka 7a8010cd36 mm: munlock: manual pte walk in fast path instead of follow_page_mask()
Currently munlock_vma_pages_range() calls follow_page_mask() to obtain
each individual struct page.  This entails repeated full page table
translations and page table lock taken for each page separately.

This patch avoids the costly follow_page_mask() where possible, by
iterating over ptes within single pmd under single page table lock.  The
first pte is obtained by get_locked_pte() for non-THP page acquired by the
initial follow_page_mask().  The rest of the on-stack pagevec for munlock
is filled up using pte_walk as long as pte_present() and vm_normal_page()
are sufficient to obtain the struct page.

After this patch, a 14% speedup was measured for munlocking a 56GB large
memory area with THP disabled.
