The locks aren't batched because we expect those situations to be rare: mlock or truncate/munmap racing with reclaim isolation. And in fact, you're adding an unconditional lock cycle and more branches to the hot path to deal with it. It's more code overall. Without data, the patch isn't very compelling. If you do have data, it would be good to include it in the changelog. Thanks!
