In the current implementation of soft offline, if non-LRU page is met,
all the slab caches will be dropped to free the page then offline.  But
if the page is not slab page all the effort is wasted in vain.  Even
though it is a slab page, it is not guaranteed the page could be freed
at all.

However the side effect and cost is quite high.  It does not only drop
the slab caches, but also may drop a significant amount of page caches
which are associated with inode caches.  It could make the most
workingset gone in order to just offline a page.  And the offline is not
guaranteed to succeed at all, actually I really doubt the success rate
for real life workload.

Furthermore the worse consequence is the system may be locked up and
unusable since the page cache release may incur huge amount of works
queued for memcg release.

Actually we ran into such unpleasant case in our production environment.
Firstly, the workqueue of memory_failure_work_func is locked up as
below:

BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 stuck for 53s!
Showing busy workqueues and worker pools:
workqueue events: flags=0x0
  pwq 2: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=14/256 refcnt=15
    in-flight: 409271:memory_failure_work_func
    pending: kfree_rcu_work, kfree_rcu_monitor, kfree_rcu_work, rht_deferred_worker, rht_deferred_worker, rht_deferred_worker, rht_deferred_worker, kfree_rcu_work, kfree_rcu_work, kfree_rcu_work, kfree_rcu_work, drain_local_stock, kfree_rcu_work
workqueue mm_percpu_wq: flags=0x8

    pending: vmstat_update
workqueue cgroup_destroy: flags=0x0
  pwq 2: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=1/1 refcnt=12072
    pending: css_release_work_fn

There were over 12K css_release_work_fn queued, and this caused a few
lockups due to the contention of worker pool lock with IRQ disabled, for
example:

The lockup made the machine is quite unusable.  And it also made the
most workingset gone, the reclaimabled slab caches were reduced from 12G
to 300MB, the page caches were decreased from 17G to 4G.

But the most disappointing thing is all the effort doesn't make the page
offline, it just returns:

soft_offline: 0x1469f2: unknown non LRU page type 5ffff0000000000 ()

It seems the aggressive behavior for non-LRU page didn't pay back, so it
doesn't make too much sense to keep it considering the terrible side
effect.
