[PATCH 0/5] support batched checking of the young flag for MGLRU

[Baolin Wang]

This is a follow-up to the previous work [1], to support batched checking
of the young flag for MGLRU.

Similarly, batched checking of young flag for large folios can improve
performance during large-folio reclamation when MGLRU is enabled. I
observed noticeable performance improvements (see patch 5) on an Arm64
machine that supports contiguous PTEs. All mm-selftests are passed.

Patch 1,2: cleanup patches.
Patch 3: add a new generic batched PTE helper: test_and_clear_young_ptes().
Patch 4: support batched young flag checking for MGLRU.
Patch 5: implement the Arm64 arch-specific test_and_clear_young_ptes().

Baolin Wang (5):
  mm: use inline helper functions instead of ugly macros
  mm: rmap: add a ZONE_DEVICE folio warning in folio_referenced()
  mm: add a batched helper to clear the young flag for large folios
  mm: support batched checking of the young flag for MGLRU
  arm64: mm: implement the architecture-specific
    test_and_clear_young_ptes()
