Usama Arif bfe0857c20 Revert "mm: skip CMA pages when they are not available"
This reverts commit 5da226dbfc ("mm: skip CMA pages when they are not
available") and b7108d6631 ("Multi-gen LRU: skip CMA pages when they are
not eligible").

lruvec->lru_lock is highly contended and is held when calling
isolate_lru_folios.  If the lru has a large number of CMA folios
consecutively, while the allocation type requested is not MIGRATE_MOVABLE,
isolate_lru_folios can hold the lock for a very long time while it skips
those.  For FIO workload, ~150million order=0 folios were skipped to
isolate a few ZONE_DMA folios [1].  This can cause lockups [1] and high
memory pressure for extended periods of time [2].

Remove skipping CMA for MGLRU as well, as it was introduced in sort_folio
for the same resaon as 5da226dbfc.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
