[RFC 2/3] mm: process_mrelease: skip LRU movement for exclusive file folios

[Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>]

For the process_mrelease reclaim, skip LRU handling for exclusive
file-backed folios since they will be freed soon so pointless
to move around in the LRU.

This avoids costly LRU movement which accounts for a significant portion
of the time during unmap_page_range.
