mm/madvise: add cond_resched() in madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range()

Browse Source 
I conducted real-time testing and observed that
madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() causes significant latency under
memory pressure, which can be effectively reduced by adding cond_resched()
within the loop.

I tested on the LicheePi 4A board using Cylictest for latency testing and
Ftrace for latency tracing.  The board uses TH1520 processor and has a
memory size of 8GB.  The kernel version is 6.5.0 with the PREEMPT_RT patch
applied.

The script I tested is as follows:

echo wakeup_rt > /sys/kernel/tracing/current_tracer
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_on
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_max_latency
stress-ng --vm 8 --vm-bytes 2G &
cyclictest --mlockall --smp --priority=99 --distance=0 --duration=30m
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_on
cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace 

The tracing results before modification are as follows:

After the modification, the cause of maximum latency is no longer
madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range(), so this modification can reduce the
latency caused by madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range().


Currently the madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() function exhibits
significant latency under memory pressure, which can be effectively
reduced by adding cond_resched() within the loop.

When the batch_count reaches SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX, we reschedule
the task to ensure fairness and avoid long lock holding times.
