[RFC 2/6] mm: add lazyfree page flag

From: Shaohua Li
Date: Mon Jan 30 2017 - 00:52:11 EST


We are going to add MADV_FREE pages into a new LRU list. Add a new flag
to indicate such pages. Note, we are reusing PG_mappedtodisk for the new
flag. This is ok because no anonymous pages have this flag set.

The patch is based on Minchan's previous patch.
