Subject: mm/thp: move lru_add_page_tail() to huge_memory.c

Patch series "per memcg lru lock", v21.

This patchset includes 3 parts:

1, some code cleanup and minimum optimization as a preparation. 
2, use TestCleanPageLRU as page isolation's precondition.
3, replace per node lru_lock with per memcg per node lru_lock.

Current lru_lock is one for each of node, pgdat->lru_lock, that guard for
lru lists, but now we had moved the lru lists into memcg for long time. 
Still using per node lru_lock is clearly unscalable, pages on each of
memcgs have to compete each others for a whole lru_lock.  This patchset
try to use per lruvec/memcg lru_lock to repleace per node lru lock to
guard lru lists, make it scalable for memcgs and get performance gain.

Currently lru_lock still guards both lru list and page's lru bit, that's
ok.  but if we want to use specific lruvec lock on the page, we need to
pin down the page's lruvec/memcg during locking.  Just taking lruvec lock
first may be undermined by the page's memcg charge/migration.  To fix this
problem, we could take out the page's lru bit clear and use it as pin down
action to block the memcg changes.  That's the reason for new atomic func
TestClearPageLRU.  So now isolating a page need both actions:
TestClearPageLRU and hold the lru_lock.

The typical usage of this is isolate_migratepages_block() in compaction.c
we have to take lru bit before lru lock, that serialized the page
isolation in memcg page charge/migration which will change page's lruvec
and new lru_lock in it.

The above solution suggested by Johannes Weiner, and based on his new
memcg charge path, then have this patchset.  (Hugh Dickins tested and
contributed much code from compaction fix to general code polish, thanks a
lot!).

Daniel Jordan's testing show 62% improvement on modified readtwice case on
his 2P * 10 core * 2 HT broadwell box on v18, which has no much different
with this v20.

Thanks to Hugh Dickins and Konstantin Khlebnikov, they both brought this
idea 8 years ago, and others who gave comments as well: Daniel Jordan, Mel
Gorman, Shakeel Butt, Matthew Wilcox, Alexander Duyck etc.

Thanks for Testing support from Intel 0day and Rong Chen, Fengguang Wu,
and Yun Wang.  Hugh Dickins also shared his kbuild-swap case.


This patch (of 19):

lru_add_page_tail() is only used in huge_memory.c, defining it in other
file with a CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE macro restrict just looks weird.

Let's move it THP. And make it static as Hugh Dickins suggested.
