This is very slow operation. There is no reason to do it again if somebody else already drained all per-cpu vectors while we waited for lock. Piggyback on drain started and finished while we waited for lock: all pages pended at the time of our enter were drained from vectors. Callers like POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED retry their operations once after draining per-cpu vectors when pages have unexpected references.
