Subject: [PATCH mm, next-next] Add missing page_count() check to vm_insert_pages().

From: Arjun Roy <arjunroy@...gle.com>

Add missing page_count() check to vm_insert_pages(), specifically
inside insert_page_in_batch_locked(). This was accidentally forgotten
in the original patchset.

See: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=158156166403807&w=2

The intention of this patch-set is to reduce atomic ops for
tcp zerocopy receives, which normally hits the same spinlock multiple
times consecutively.
