mm/truncate: use folio_split() in truncate operation
Instead of splitting the large folio uniformly during truncation, try to
use buddy allocator like folio_split() at the start and the end of a
truncation range to minimize the number of resulting folios if it is
supported. try_folio_split() is introduced to use folio_split() if
supported and it falls back to uniform split otherwise.
For example, to truncate a order-4 folio
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ..., 15]
between [3, 10] (inclusive), folio_split() splits the folio at 3 to
[0,1], [2], [3], [4..7], [8..15] and [3], [4..7] can be dropped and
[8..15] is kept with zeros in [8..10], then another folio_split() is
done at 10, so [8..10] can be dropped.
One possible optimization is to make folio_split() to split a folio based
on a given range, like [3..10] above. But that complicates folio_split(),
so it will be investigated when necessary.
