[PATCH] reduce lock contention in try_to_free_buffers()
The blockdev mapping's private_lock is fairly contended. The buffer
LRU cache fixed a lot of that, but under page replacement load,
try_to_free_buffers is still showing up.
Moving the freeing of buffer_heads outside the lock reduces contention
in there by 30%.
