BACKPORT: mm/vmscan: drop checking if _deferred_list is empty before using TTU_SYNC
The optimization of list_empty(&folio->_deferred_list) aimed to prevent increasing the PTL duration when a large folio is partially unmapped, for example, from subpage 0 to subpage (nr - 2). But Ryan's commit 5ed890ce ("mm: vmscan: avoid split during shrink_folio_list()") actually splits this kind of large folios. This makes the "optimization" useless. Additionally, the list_empty() technically required a data_race() annotation.
