Johannes Weiner has suggested:
"
So here is a crazy idea that may be worth exploring:

Right now, pgdat->lru_lock protects both PageLRU *and* the lruvec's
linked list.

Can we make PageLRU atomic and use it to stabilize the lru_lock
instead, and then use the lru_lock only serialize list operations?
...
"

Yes, this patch is doing so on  __isolate_lru_page which is the core
page isolation func in compaction and shrinking path.

This patch move clear page lru action before compaction getting lru_lock,
makes it as a necessary condition for page isolation. Hence, PageLRU may
be cleared druing shrink_inactive_list path for isolation reason. If so,
we can skip that page's in reclaim.

It's a preparation for later per memcg lru_lock change.
