[PATCH] mm: remove redundant lru_add_drain() prior to unmapping pages

[Jianfeng Wang <jianfeng.w.wang@oracle.com>]

When unmapping VMA pages, pages will be gathered in batch and released by
tlb_finish_mmu() if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_NO_GATHER is not set. The function
tlb_finish_mmu() is responsible for calling free_pages_and_swap_cache(),
which calls lru_add_drain() to drain cached pages in folio_batch before
releasing gathered pages. Thus, it is redundant to call lru_add_drain()
before gathering pages, if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_NO_GATHER is not set.

Remove lru_add_drain() prior to gathering and unmapping pages in
exit_mmap() and unmap_region() if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_NO_GATHER is not set.

Note that the page unmapping process in oom_killer (e.g., in
__oom_reap_task_mm()) also uses tlb_finish_mmu() and does not have
redundant lru_add_drain(). So, this commit makes the code more consistent.
