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 5ed890ce5147 ("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.
