a10e552 updated abd_free_linear_page() to no longer call abd_update_scatter_stat(). This meant that linear pages that were not attached to Direct I/O requests were not doing waste accounting for the ARC. This led to performance issues due to incorrect ARC accounting that resulted in 100% of CPU time being spent in arc_evict() during prolonged I/O workloads with the ARC.
The call to abd_update_scatter_stats() is now conditionally called in abd_free_linear_page() when the ABD is not from a Direct I/O request.
Properly handling ARC waste accounting for linear page ABD's in Linux.
Motivation and Context
Without this change, ARC performance can degrade with 100% of the CPU time being spent in arc_evict() during prolonged I/O loads.
This issue was observed in #16728.
Description
Added abd_update_scatter_stat() back to abd_free_linear_page() so it is called in the event that the ABD is not from a Direct I/O request.
