Subject: [PATCH v1 09/11] mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP

Let's implement PTE batching when consecutive (present) PTEs map
consecutive pages of the same large folio, and all other PTE bits besides
the PFNs are equal.

We will optimize folio_pte_batch() separately, to ignore some other
PTE bits. This patch is based on work by Ryan Roberts.

Use __always_inline for __copy_present_ptes() and keep the handling for
single PTEs completely separate from the multi-PTE case: we really want
the compiler to optimize for the single-PTE case with small folios, to
not degrade performance.

Note that PTE batching will never exceed a single page table and will
always stay within VMA boundaries.
