Subject: [PATCH 2/8] mm, truncate: Do not check mapping for every page being truncated
During truncation, the mapping has already been checked for shmem and dax
so it's known that workingset_update_node is required. This patch avoids
the checks on mapping for each page being truncated. In all other cases,
a lookup helper is used to determine if workingset_update_node() needs
to be called. The one danger is that the API is slightly harder to use as
calling workingset_update_node directly without checking for dax or shmem
mappings could lead to surprises. However, the API rarely needs to be used
and hopefully the comment is enough to give people the hint.

As you'd expect, the gain is marginal but it can be detected. The differences
in bonnie are all within the noise which is not surprising given the impact
on the microbenchmark.
