mm/swap.c and mm/mlock.c agree to drain any per-CPU batch as soon as a
large folio is added: so collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios() just wastes
effort when calling lru_add_drain[_all]() on a large folio.
But although there is good reason not to batch up PMD-sized folios, we
might well benefit from batching a small number of low-order mTHPs (though
unclear how that "small number" limitation will be implemented).
So ask if folio_may_be_lru_cached() rather than !folio_test_large(), to
insulate those particular checks from future change. Name preferred to
"folio_is_batchable" because large folios can well be put on a batch: it's
just the per-CPU LRU caches, drained much later, which need care.
Marked for stable, to counter the increase in lru_add_drain_all()s from
"mm/gup: check ref_count instead of lru before migration".

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
