Qi Zheng 3b139cbda7 mm: pgtable: reclaim empty PTE page in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)
Now in order to pursue high performance, applications mostly use some
high-performance user-mode memory allocators, such as jemalloc or
tcmalloc.  These memory allocators use madvise(MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE)
to release physical memory, but neither MADV_DONTNEED nor MADV_FREE will
release page table memory, which may cause huge page table memory usage.

The following are a memory usage snapshot of one process which actually
happened on our server:

        VIRT:  55t
        RES:   590g
        VmPTE: 110g

In this case, most of the page table entries are empty.  For such a PTE
page where all entries are empty, we can actually free it back to the
system for others to use.

As a first step, this commit aims to synchronously free the empty PTE
pages in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) case.  We will detect and free empty PTE
pages in zap_pte_range(), and will add zap_details.reclaim_pt to exclude
cases other than madvise(MADV_DONTNEED).

Once an empty PTE is detected, we first try to hold the pmd lock within
the pte lock.  If successful, we clear the pmd entry directly (fast path).
Otherwise, we wait until the pte lock is released, then re-hold the pmd
and pte locks and loop PTRS_PER_PTE times to check pte_none() to re-detect
whether the PTE page is empty and free it (slow path).

For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing
empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future.

The following code snippet can show the effect of optimization:

        mmap 50G
        while (1) {
                for (; i < 1024 * 25; i++) {
                        touch 2M memory
                        madvise MADV_DONTNEED 2M
                }
        }

As we can see, the memory usage of VmPTE is reduced:

                        before                          after
VIRT                   50.0 GB                        50.0 GB
RES                     3.1 MB                         3.1 MB
VmPTE                102640 KB                         240 KB
