Similar to follow_hugetlb_page() add a follow_devmap_page which rather
than calling follow_page() per 4K page in a PMD/PUD it does so for the
entire PMD, where we lock the pmd/pud, get all pages , unlock.

While doing so, we only change the refcount once when PGMAP_COMPOUND is
passed in.

This let us improve {pin,get}_user_pages{,_longterm}() considerably:

$ gup_benchmark -f /dev/dax0.2 -m 16384 -r 10 -S [-U,-b,-L] -n 512 -w

(<test>) [before] -> [after]
(get_user_pages 2M pages) ~150k us -> ~8.9k us
(pin_user_pages 2M pages) ~192k us -> ~9k us
(pin_user_pages_longterm 2M pages) ~200k us -> ~19k us

I've special-cased this to device-dax vmas given its similar page size
guarantees as hugetlbfs, but I feel this is a bit wrong. I am
replicating follow_hugetlb_page() as RFC ought to seek feedback whether
this should be generalized if no fundamental issues exist. In such case,
should I be changing follow_page_mask() to take either an array of pages
or a function pointer and opaque arguments which would let caller pick
its structure?

Yes, this is a massive improvement.

I don't know which approach is better because I haven't yet attempted to
find the common elements in these routines. But if there is *any way* to
avoid this copy-paste creation of yet more following of pages, then it's
*very* good to do.

thanks,

something like this:

from this old and not fully working series:

Yeap, indeed.

Specially, when similar problem is observed for THP, at least from the
measurements I saw. It is all slow, except for hugetlbfs.

Thanks for the suggestions above.

Interesting, wasn't aware of the siloing.

I'll go investigate how this all refactoring goes together, at the point
of which a future iteration of this particular patch probably needs to
move independently from this series.
