Vlastimil Babka 48131e03ca mm, proc: reduce cost of /proc/pid/smaps for unpopulated shmem mappings
Following the previous patch, further reduction of /proc/pid/smaps cost
is possible for private writable shmem mappings with unpopulated areas
where the page walk invokes the .pte_hole function.  We can use radix
tree iterator for each such area instead of calling find_get_entry() in
a loop.  This is possible at the extra maintenance cost of introducing
another shmem function shmem_partial_swap_usage().

To demonstrate the diference, I have measured this on a process that
creates a private writable 2GB mapping of a partially swapped out
/dev/shm/file (which cannot employ the optimizations from the prvious
patch) and doesn't populate it at all.  I time how long does it take to
cat /proc/pid/smaps of this process 100 times.

Before this patch:

real    0m3.831s
user    0m0.180s
sys     0m3.212s

After this patch:

real    0m1.176s
user    0m0.180s
sys     0m0.684s

The time is similar to the case where a radix tree iterator is employed
on the whole mapping.
