There is a fundamental mismatch between the runtime based NUMA scanning at the task level, and the wall clock time NUMA scanning at the mm level. On a severely overloaded system, with very large processes, this mismatch can cause the system to spend all of its time in change_prot_numa(). This can happen if the task spends at least two ticks in change_prot_numa(), and only gets two ticks of CPU time in the real time between two scan intervals of the mm. This patch ensures that a task never spends more than 3% of run time scanning PTEs. It does that by ensuring that in-between task_numa_work() runs, the task spends at least 32x as much time on other things than it did on task_numa_work(). This is done stochastically: if a timer tick happens, or the task gets rescheduled during task_numa_work(), we delay a future run of task_numa_work() until the task has spent at least 32x the amount of CPU time doing something else, as it spent inside task_numa_work(). The longer task_numa_work() takes, the more likely it is this happens. If task_numa_work() takes very little time, chances are low that that code will do anything, but we will not care.
