mm: fix is_pinnable_page against a cma page
Pages in the CMA area could have MIGRATE_ISOLATE as well as MIGRATE_CMA so the current is_pinnable_page() could miss CMA pages which have MIGRATE_ISOLATE. It ends up pinning CMA pages as longterm for the pin_user_pages() API so CMA allocations keep failing until the pin is released. CPU 0 CPU 1 - Task B cma_alloc alloc_contig_range pin_user_pages_fast(FOLL_LONGTERM) change pageblock as MIGRATE_ISOLATE internal_get_user_pages_fast lockless_pages_from_mm gup_pte_range try_grab_folio is_pinnable_page return true; So, pinned the page successfully. page migration failure with pinned page .. .. After 30 sec unpin_user_page(page) CMA allocation succeeded after 30 sec. The CMA allocation path protects the migration type change race using zone->lock but what GUP path need to know is just whether the page is on CMA area or not rather than exact migration type. Thus, we don't need zone->lock but just checks migration type in either of (MIGRATE_ISOLATE and MIGRATE_CMA). Adding the MIGRATE_ISOLATE check in is_pinnable_page could cause rejecting of pinning pages on MIGRATE_ISOLATE pageblocks even though it's neither CMA nor movable zone if the page is temporarily unmovable. However, such a migration failure by unexpected temporal refcount holding is general issue, not only come from MIGRATE_ISOLATE and the MIGRATE_ISOLATE is also transient state like other temporal elevated refcount problem.
