Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 2/3] mm: handle large folio when large folio in VM_LOCKED VMA range

If large folio is in the range of VM_LOCKED VMA, it should be
mlocked to avoid being picked by page reclaim. Which may split
the large folio and then mlock each pages again.

Mlock this kind of large folio to prevent them being picked by
page reclaim.

For the large folio which cross the boundary of VM_LOCKED VMA,
we'd better not to mlock it. So if the system is under memory
pressure, this kind of large folio will be split and the pages
ouf of VM_LOCKED VMA can be reclaimed.
