It seems better to open code version in lru_add than adding a bool
argument which is true just for one user.

Also with this new lru protection logic lru_add could be optimized:
It could prepare a list of pages and under lru_lock do only list
splice and bumping counter.
Since PageLRU isn't set yet nobody could touch these pages in lru.
After that lru_add could iterate pages from first to last without
lru_lock to set PageLRU and drop reference.

So, lru_add will do O(1) operations under lru_lock regardless of the
count of pages it added.

Actually per-cpu vector for adding could be replaced with per-cpu
lists and\or per-lruvec atomic slist.
Thus incommig pages will be already in list structure rather than page vector.
This allows to accumulate more pages and offload adding to kswapd or
direct reclaim.
