mm: accelerate munlock() treatment of THP pages
munlock_vma_pages_range() was always incrementing addresses by PAGE_SIZE at a time. When munlocking THP pages (or the huge zero page), this resulted in taking the mm->page_table_lock 512 times in a row. We can do better by making use of the page_mask returned by follow_page_mask (for the huge zero page case), or the size of the page munlock_vma_page() operated on (for the true THP page case).
