mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.19-rc1 commit b191c9bc334a936775843867485c207e23b30e1b category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I9NU9F

--------------------------------
free a large list of pages maybe cause rcu_sched starved on non-preemptible kernels. howerver free_unref_page_list maybe can't cond_resched as it maybe called in interrupt or atomic context, especially can't detect atomic context in CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n.
The issue is detected in guest with kvm cpu 200% overcommit, however I didn't see the warning in the host with the same application. I'm sure that the patch is needed for guest kernel, but no sure for host.
To reproduce, set up two virtual machines in one host machine, per vm has the same number cpu and half memory of host. the run ltpstress.sh in per vm, then will see rcu stall warning.kernel is preempt disabled, append kernel command 'preempt=none' if enable dynamic preempt . It could detected in loongson machine(32 core, 128G mem) and ProLiant DL380 Gen9(x86 E5-2680, 28 core, 64G mem)
tlb flush batch count depends on PAGE_SIZE, it's too large if PAGE_SIZE > 4K, here limit free batch count with 512. And add schedule point in tlb_batch_pages_flush.

--------------------------------
free_transhuge_page() acquires split queue lock then check whether the THP was added to deferred list or not. It brings high deferred queue lock contention.
It's safe to check whether the THP is in deferred list or not without holding the deferred queue lock in free_transhuge_page() because when code hit free_transhuge_page(), there is no one tries to add the folio to _deferred_list.
Running page_fault1 of will-it-scale + order 2 folio for anonymous mapping with 96 processes on an Ice Lake 48C/96T test box, we could see the 61% split_queue_lock contention: - 63.02% 0.01% page_fault1_pro [kernel.kallsyms] [k] free_transhuge_page - 63.01% free_transhuge_page + 62.91% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
With this patch applied, the split_queue_lock contention is less than 1%.
