Subject: [PATCH 6/9] mm/clear_huge_page: use multi-page clearing

clear_pages_rep(), clear_pages_erms() use string instructions
internally. These, unlike a MOV loop, allow us to explicitly advertise
the region-size to the processor. Thus, clearing in multi-page chunks
means we can specify the real region sizes (or close to it) which is
good for two reasons:

 - region-size can serve as a hint to current (some AMD Zen models) and
   possibly future uarchs which can use this hint to avoid polluting one
   or more levels of the dcache.

 - string instructions are typically microcoded, and would be cheaper
   if amortized across larger regions. We also execute fewer loop
   iterations (ex. a cond_resched() check for each page but those
   instructions are likely free.)

clear_huge_page() now clears in three sections: the local neighbourhood
of the faulting address (faulting page, and four surrounding pages),
and its left and right regions.

The local neighbourhood is cleared last to keep its cachelines hot.

Performance
==

Use mmap(MAP_HUGETLB) to demand fault a 64GB region (on the local
NUMA node):
