fs: drop_caches: draining pages before dropping caches
We expect a file page access after dropping caches should be a major fault, but sometimes it's still a minor fault. That's because a file page can't be dropped if it's in a per-cpu pagevec. Draining all pages from per-cpu pagevec to lru list before trying to drop caches.
