Subject: [PATCH] mm: uninline slowpath of page_mapcount()

Let's move page_mapcount() part for compound page into mm/util.c.

make allyesconfig:

  text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
188515051	153360535	85458720	427334306	19789aa2	vmlinux.o.before
188512917	153356439	85458720	427328076	1978824c	vmlinux.o.after
