We don't have to add a freeable page into lru and then remove from it.
This change saves a couple of actions and makes the moving more clear.

The SetPageLRU needs to be kept here for list intergrity.
Otherwise:
 #0 mave_pages_to_lru              #1 release_pages
                                   if (put_page_testzero())
 if !put_page_testzero
                                     !PageLRU //skip lru_lock
                                       list_add(&page->lru,)
   list_add(&page->lru,) //corrupt

The race comments should be corrected to this:
                /*
                 * The SetPageLRU needs to be kept here for list intergrity.
                 * Otherwise:
                 *   #0 mave_pages_to_lru             #1 release_pages
                 *   if !put_page_testzero
                 *                                    if (put_page_testzero())
                 *                                      !PageLRU //skip lru_lock
                 *     SetPageLRU()
                 *     list_add(&page->lru,)
                 *                                        list_add(&page->lru,)
                 */
