[PATCH mm-new v7 2/5] mm: khugepaged: refine scan progress number

[Vernon Yang <vernon2gm@gmail.com>]

From: Vernon Yang <yanglincheng@kylinos.cn>

Currently, each scan always increases "progress" by HPAGE_PMD_NR,
even if only scanning a single PTE/PMD entry.

- When only scanning a sigle PTE entry, let me provide a detailed
  example:

static int hpage_collapse_scan_pmd()
{
	for (addr = start_addr, _pte = pte; _pte < pte + HPAGE_PMD_NR;
	     _pte++, addr += PAGE_SIZE) {
		pte_t pteval = ptep_get(_pte);
		...
		if (pte_uffd_wp(pteval)) { <-- first scan hit
			result = SCAN_PTE_UFFD_WP;
			goto out_unmap;
		}
	}
}

During the first scan, if pte_uffd_wp(pteval) is true, the loop exits
directly. In practice, only one PTE is scanned before termination.
Here, "progress += 1" reflects the actual number of PTEs scanned, but
previously "progress += HPAGE_PMD_NR" always.

- When the memory has been collapsed to PMD, let me provide a detailed
  example:

The following data is traced by bpftrace on a desktop system. After
the system has been left idle for 10 minutes upon booting, a lot of
SCAN_PMD_MAPPED or SCAN_NO_PTE_TABLE are observed during a full scan
by khugepaged.

From trace_mm_khugepaged_scan_pmd and trace_mm_khugepaged_scan_file, the
following statuses were observed, with frequency mentioned next to them:

SCAN_SUCCEED          : 1
SCAN_EXCEED_SHARED_PTE: 2
SCAN_PMD_MAPPED       : 142
SCAN_NO_PTE_TABLE     : 178
total progress size   : 674 MB
Total time            : 419 seconds, include khugepaged_scan_sleep_millisecs

The khugepaged_scan list save all task that support collapse into hugepage,
as long as the task is not destroyed, khugepaged will not remove it from
the khugepaged_scan list. This exist a phenomenon where task has already
collapsed all memory regions into hugepage, but khugepaged continues to
scan it, which wastes CPU time and invalid, and due to
khugepaged_scan_sleep_millisecs (default 10s) causes a long wait for
scanning a large number of invalid task, so scanning really valid task
is later.

After applying this patch, when the memory is either SCAN_PMD_MAPPED or
SCAN_NO_PTE_TABLE, just skip it, as follow:

SCAN_EXCEED_SHARED_PTE: 2
SCAN_PMD_MAPPED       : 147
SCAN_NO_PTE_TABLE     : 173
total progress size   : 45 MB
Total time            : 20 seconds
