The following might turn out a bit nicer: Make folio_pte_batch() collect 
"any_young", then doing something like we do with "any_writable" in the 
fork() case:

..
	nr = folio_pte_batch(folio, addr, pte, ptent, max_nr,
			     fpb_flags, NULL, any_young);
	if (any_young)
		pte_mkyoung(ptent)
..

if (!pageout && pte_young(ptent)) {
	mkold_full_ptes(mm, addr, pte, nr, tlb->fullmm);
	tlb_remove_tlb_entries(tlb, pte, nr, addr);
}
