The ->percpu_pvec_drained was originally introduced by commit d9ed0d08b6c6
("mm: only drain per-cpu pagevecs once per pagevec usage") to drain
per-cpu pagevecs only once per pagevec usage.  But after converting the
swap code to be more folio-based, the commit c2bc16817aa0 ("mm/swap: add
folio_batch_move_lru()") breaks this logic, which would cause
->percpu_pvec_drained to be reset to false, that means per-cpu pagevecs
will be drained multiple times per pagevec usage.

In theory, there should be no functional changes when converting code to
be more folio-based.  We should call folio_batch_reinit() in
folio_batch_move_lru() instead of folio_batch_init().  And to verify that
we still need ->percpu_pvec_drained, I ran mmtests/sparsetruncate-tiny and
got the following data:

BAmean-25 Time      329.30 (   0.00%)      332.00 (  -0.82%)

From the above it can be seen that we get similar data to when
->percpu_pvec_drained was introduced, so we still need it.  Let's call
folio_batch_reinit() in folio_batch_move_lru() to restore the original
logic.
