mm/munlock: add lru_add_drain() to fix memcg_stat_test
Mike reports that LTP memcg_stat_test usually leads to
memcg_stat_test 3 TINFO: Test unevictable with MAP_LOCKED
memcg_stat_test 3 TINFO: Running memcg_process --mmap-lock1 -s 135168
memcg_stat_test 3 TINFO: Warming up pid: 3460
memcg_stat_test 3 TINFO: Process is still here after warm up: 3460
memcg_stat_test 3 TFAIL: unevictable is 122880, 135168 expected
but may also lead to
memcg_stat_test 4 TINFO: Test unevictable with mlock
memcg_stat_test 4 TINFO: Running memcg_process --mmap-lock2 -s 135168
memcg_stat_test 4 TINFO: Warming up pid: 4271
memcg_stat_test 4 TINFO: Process is still here after warm up: 4271
memcg_stat_test 4 TFAIL: unevictable is 122880, 135168 expected
or both. A wee bit flaky.
follow_page_pte() used to have an lru_add_drain() per each page mlocked,
and the test came to rely on accurate stats. The pagevec to be drained
is different now, but still covered by lru_add_drain(); and, never mind
the test, I believe it's in everyone's interest that a bulk faulting
interface like populate_vma_page_range() or faultin_vma_page_range()
should drain its local pagevecs at the end, to save others sometimes
needing the much more expensive lru_add_drain_all().
This does not absolutely guarantee exact stats - the mlocking task can
be migrated between CPUs as it proceeds - but it's good enough and the
tests pass.
