mm: optimise put_pages_list()

Instead of calling put_page() one page at a time, pop pages off the list
if their refcount was too high and pass the remainder to
put_unref_page_list().  This should be a speed improvement, but I have
no measurements to support that.  Current callers do not care about
performance, but I hope to add some which do.
