Subject: mm/vmscan: remove unnecessary lruvec adding

Patch series "per lruvec lru_lock for memcg", v9.

A partial merge.  The first 6 patches from a 20 patch series.  Some code
cleanups and minimal optimizations.


This patch (of 6):

We don't have to add a freeable page into lru and then remove from it. 
This change saves a couple of actions and makes the moving more clear.

The SetPageLRU needs to be kept here for list intergrity.
Otherwise:
 #0 mave_pages_to_lru              #1 release_pages
                                   if (put_page_testzero())
 if !put_page_testzero
                                     !PageLRU //skip lru_lock
                                       list_add(&page->lru,)
   list_add(&page->lru,) //corrupt
