[PATCH 12/25] mm/fbatch: remove percpu_pvec_drained and folios_put()

[Hugh Dickins]

Remove the percpu_pvec_drained field from folio_batch, and its only use
in __folio_batch_release(): remove that now pointless lru_add_drain().

Which leaves __folio_batch_release() as an exported name for folios_put()
which is itself just a wrapper for folios_put_refs(): mm/mlock.c and
mm/folio.c don't need such a wrapper, just say folios_put_refs(,NULL).

Or should folios_put() be the export? But __folio_batch_release() is what
drivers/gpu and net/sunrpc are using: don't change them in this series.
