David Rientjes ddbf369c0a mm, vmacache: hash addresses based on pmd
When perf profiling a wide variety of different workloads, it was found
that vmacache_find() had higher than expected cost: up to 0.08% of cpu
utilization in some cases.  This was found to rival other core VM
functions such as alloc_pages_vma() with thp enabled and default
mempolicy, and the conditionals in __get_vma_policy().

VMACACHE_HASH() determines which of the four per-task_struct slots a vma
is cached for a particular address.  This currently depends on the pfn,
so pfn 5212 occupies a different vmacache slot than its neighboring pfn
5213.

vmacache_find() iterates through all four of current's vmacache slots
when looking up an address.  Hashing based on pfn, an address has
~1/VMACACHE_SIZE chance of being cached in the first vmacache slot, or
about 25%, *if* the vma is cached.

This patch hashes an address by its pmd instead of pte to optimize for
workloads with good spatial locality.  This results in a higher
probability of vmas being cached in the first slot that is checked:
normally ~70% on the same workloads instead of 25%.
