From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Since commit 974b9b2c68f3 ("mm: consolidate pte_index() and pte_offset_*()
definitions") pte_index is a static inline and there is no define for it
that can be recognized by the preprocessor. As the result,
vm_insert_pages() uses slower loop over vm_insert_page() instead of
insert_pages() that amortizes the cost of spinlock operations when
inserting multiple pages.
Fixes: 974b9b2c68f3 ("mm: consolidate pte_index() and pte_offset_*() definitions")
