Hi Yu,
This won't work for the fault path (eg. the memtier test):

It ages fast.
It's hard to share the code with mm_walk, because in next patch, it
tries to move the pages in bulk, there is no such logic for mm_walk.
It's not very effective with this benchmark indeed, I'll update with
some other tests.
