mm, pcp: reduce detecting time of consecutive high order page freeing
In current PCP auto-tuning design, if the number of pages allocated is much more than that of pages freed on a CPU, the PCP high may become the maximal value even if the allocating/freeing depth is small, for example, in the sender of network workloads. If a CPU was used as sender originally, then it is used as receiver after context switching, we need to fill the whole PCP with maximal high before triggering PCP draining for consecutive high order freeing. This will hurt the performance of some network workloads. To solve the issue, in this patch, we will track the consecutive page freeing with a counter in stead of relying on PCP draining. So, we can detect consecutive page freeing much earlier. On a 2-socket Intel server with 128 logical CPU, we tested SCTP_STREAM_MANY test case of netperf test suite with 64-pair processes. With the patch, the network bandwidth improves 5.0%. This restores the performance drop caused by PCP auto-tuning.
