mm: shrink skip folio mapped by an exiting task

Commit Message

If an anon folio reclaimed by shrink_inactive_list is mapped by an
exiting task, this anon folio will be firstly swaped-out into
swapspace in shrink flow and then this swap folio is freed in task
exit flow. But if this folio mapped by an exiting task can skip
shrink and be freed directly in task exiting flow, which will save
swap-out time and alleviate the load of the tasks exiting process.
The file folio is also similar.

And when system is low memory, it more likely to occur, because more
backend applidatuions will be killed.

This patch can alleviate the load of the tasks exiting process.
