Thanks, Jerry. Actually, here we will remember both per-vm and PD/PT BOs
positions in the same VM. And move them one time to the end of LRU. And
won't move them one by one. The time complexity is from O(n) to O(1).
The performance issue is not caused by eviction, but by the many times of
moving on LRU list. So for now, we do the bulk move instead.

Thanks,
Ray
