mm/slub: detach and reattach partial slabs in batch

mm/slub: detach and reattach partial slabs in batch

get_partial_node_bulk() moves each selected slab from the node's
partial list to the local pc->slabs list using a remove_partial() and
list_add() pair. In practice, the loop often detaches several adjacent
slabs. Doing this individually repeatedly manipulates list pointers
while holding n->list_lock, which causes unnecessary churn.

To demonstrate this, the counts below show how often single vs. multiple
consecutive slabs are retrieved during a will-it-scale mmap stress test:

consecutive_slabs_count        frequency
= 1                            277345324
= 2                            335238023
= 3                            175717884
>= 4                           88862337

The data confirms that retrieving multiple contiguous slabs is highly
frequent.

To optimize this, track contiguous runs of matching slabs and move each
run in a single operation using list_bulk_move_tail(). This reduces list
pointer churn inside the lock critical section.

Apply the same optimization to __refill_objects_node() when reattaching
leftover partial slabs back to the node's partial list.

The will-it-scale mmap benchmark shows a 2% ~ 5% performance improvement
after applying this patch.
