From: Zanxiong Qiu <zqiu2000@xxxxxxx>
get_cpu_var() calls preempt_disable(), while on RT kernel,
pagevec_lru_move_fn() will call spinlock and might schedule
the context out and hence the schedule bug occurred, issue
is found on 5.4.70-rt40 and reproducable on 5.4.74-rt41.
32154a0abcc ("mm: Revert the DEFINE_PER_CPU_PAGEVEC implementation")
reverted the lock/unlock_swap_pvec function, however,
deactivate_page() part was missed at that time as it's newly
added in v5.4.
