    mm: vmscan: avoid split during shrink_folio_list() · 5ed890ce
    Ryan Roberts authored
    Now that swap supports storing all mTHP sizes, avoid splitting large
    folios before swap-out.  This benefits performance of the swap-out path by
    eliding split_folio_to_list(), which is expensive, and also sets us up for
    swapping in large folios in a future series.
    
    If the folio is partially mapped, we continue to split it since we want to
    avoid the extra IO overhead and storage of writing out pages
    uneccessarily.
    
    THP_SWPOUT and THP_SWPOUT_FALLBACK counters should continue to count
    events only for PMD-mappable folios to avoid user confusion.  THP_SWPOUT
    already has the appropriate guard.  Add a guard for THP_SWPOUT_FALLBACK. 
    It may be appropriate to add per-size counters in future.
