This patchset tweaks compaction and makes it possible to trigger pool
compaction automatically when system is getting low on memory.
zsmalloc in some cases can suffer from a notable fragmentation and
compaction can release some considerable amount of memory. The problem
here is that currently we fully rely on user space to perform compaction
when needed. However, performing zsmalloc compaction is not always an
obvious thing to do. For example, suppose we have a `idle' fragmented
(compaction was never performed) zram device and system is getting low
on memory due to some 3rd party user processes (gcc LTO, or firefox,
etc.). It's quite unlikely that user space will issue zpool compaction
in this case. Besides, user space cannot tell for sure how badly pool
is fragmented; however, this info is known to zsmalloc and, hence, to a
shrinker.
This patch (of 7):
__zs_compact() does not use `nr_to_migrate', drop it.

zone_spanned_pages_in_node()
When hot adding a node from add_memory(), we will add memblock first, so
the node is not empty. But when called from cpu_up(), the node should
be empty.

sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio in comments
We use sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio rather than
sysctl_lower_zone_reserve_ratio to determine how aggressive the kernel
is in defending lowmem from the possibility of being captured into
pinned user memory. To avoid misleading, correct it in some comments.

Commit 1dfb059b9438 ("thp: reduce khugepaged freezing latency") fixed
khugepaged to do not block a system suspend. But the result is that it
could not get interrupted before the given timeout because the condition
for the wait event is "false".
This patch puts back the original approach but it uses
freezable_schedule_timeout_interruptible() instead of
schedule_timeout_interruptible(). It does the right thing. I am pretty
sure that the freezable variant was not used in the original fix only
because it was not available at that time.
The regression has been there for ages. It was not critical. It just
did the allocation throttling a little bit more aggressively.
I found this problem when converting the kthread to kthread worker API
and trying to understand the code.
This bug is thought to have minimal userspace-visible impact. Somebody
could set a high alloc_sleep value by mistake, and then try to fix it
back, but khugepaged would keep sleeping until the high value expires.

We cache isolate_start_pfn before entering isolate_migratepages(). If
pageblock is skipped in isolate_migratepages() due to whatever reason,
cc->migrate_pfn can be far from isolate_start_pfn hence we flush pages
that were freed. For example, the following scenario can be possible:
- assume order-9 compaction, pageblock order is 9
- start_isolate_pfn is 0x200
- isolate_migratepages()
- skip a number of pageblocks
- start to isolate from pfn 0x600
- cc->migrate_pfn = 0x620
- return
- last_migrated_pfn is set to 0x200
- check flushing condition
- current_block_start is set to 0x600
- last_migrated_pfn < current_block_start then do useless flush
This wrong flush would not help the performance and success rate so this
patch tries to fix it. One simple way to know the exact position where
we start to isolate migratable pages is that we cache it in
isolate_migratepages() before entering actual isolation. This patch
implements that and fixes the problem.

alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page
allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is
valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't
fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the
name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is
restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is
only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags.
The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example
commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage
allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy:
migrate_to_node should only migrate to node").
Another issue with the name is that there's a family of
alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead
of page order), which leads to more confusion.
To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames
alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that
it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general
usage. Both functions get described in comments.
It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for
allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that
__GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't
duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small
anyway.
Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to
call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent()
which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use
alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some
VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in
alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes
NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously
exposed.
Both differences will be rectified by the next patch.
To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily
hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in
alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose
more existing buggy callers.

This is merely a politeness: I've not found that shrink_page_list()
leads to deadlock with the page it holds locked across
wait_on_page_writeback(); but nevertheless, why hold others off by
keeping the page locked there?
And while we're at it: remove the mistaken "not " from the commentary on
this Case 3 (and a distracting blank line from Case 2, if I may).

Shmem uses shmem_recalc_inode to update i_blocks when it allocates page,
undoes range or swaps. But mm can drop clean page without notifying
shmem. This makes fstat sometimes return out-of-date block size.
The problem can be partially solved when we add
inode_operations->getattr which calls shmem_recalc_inode to update
i_blocks for fstat.
shmem_recalc_inode also updates counter used by statfs and
vm_committed_as. For them the situation is not changed. They still
suffer from the discrepancy after dropping clean page and before the
function is called by aforementioned triggers.

memory_failure() can be called at any page at any time, which means that
we can't eliminate the possibility of containment failure. In such case
the best option is to leak the page intentionally (and never touch it
later.)
We have an unpoison function for testing, and it cannot handle such
containment-failed pages, which results in kernel panic (visible with
various calltraces.) So this patch suggests that we limit the
unpoisonable pages to properly contained pages and ignore any other
ones.
Testers are recommended to keep in mind that there're un-unpoisonable
pages when writing test programs.

This race is explained like below:

TestClearPageHWPoison
put_page -> release refcount held by get_hwpoison_page in unpoison_memory
put_page -> release refcount held by isolate_lru_page in __soft_offline_page
migrate_pages
The second put_page() releases refcount held by isolate_lru_page() which
will lead to unmap_and_move() releases the last refcount of page and w/
mapcount still 1 since try_to_unmap() is not called if there is only one
user map the page. Anyway, the page refcount and mapcount will still
mess if the page is mapped by multiple users.
This race was introduced by commit 4491f71260 ("mm/memory-failure: set
PageHWPoison before migrate_pages()"), which focuses on preventing the
reuse of successfully migrated page. Before this commit we prevent the
reuse by changing the migratetype to MIGRATE_ISOLATE during soft
offlining, which has the following problems, so simply reverting the
commit is not a best option:
1) it doesn't eliminate the reuse completely, because
set_migratetype_isolate() can fail to set MIGRATE_ISOLATE to the
target page if the pageblock of the page contains one or more
unmovable pages (i.e. has_unmovable_pages() returns true).
2) the original code changes migratetype to MIGRATE_ISOLATE
forcibly, and sets it to MIGRATE_MOVABLE forcibly after soft offline,
regardless of the original migratetype state, which could impact
other subsystems like memory hotplug or compaction.
This patch moves PageSetHWPoison just after put_page() in
unmap_and_move(), which closes up the reported race window and minimizes
another race window b/w SetPageHWPoison and reallocation (which causes
the reuse of soft-offlined page.) The latter race window still exists
but it's acceptable, because it's rare and effectively the same as
ordinary "containment failure" case even if it happens, so keep the
window open is acceptable.

Hwpoison injection takes a refcount of target page and another refcount
of head page of THP if the target page is the tail page of a THP.
However, current code doesn't release the refcount of head page if the
THP is not supported to be injected wrt hwpoison filter.
Fix it by reducing the refcount of head page if the target page is the
tail page of a THP and it is not supported to be injected.

When booting an arm64 kernel w/initrd using UEFI/grub, use of mem= will
likely cut off part or all of the initrd. This leaves it outside the
kernel linear map which leads to failure when unpacking. The x86 code
has a similar need to relocate an initrd outside of mapped memory in
some cases.
The current x86 code uses early_memremap() to copy the original initrd
from unmapped to mapped RAM. This patchset creates a generic
copy_from_early_mem() utility based on that x86 code and has arm64 and
x86 share it in their respective initrd relocation code.
This patch (of 3):
In some early boot circumstances, it may be necessary to copy from RAM
outside the kernel linear mapping to mapped RAM. The need to relocate
an initrd is one example in the x86 code. This patch creates a helper
function based on current x86 code.

The compaction free scanner is looking for PageBuddy() pages and
skipping all others. For large compound pages such as THP or hugetlbfs,
we can save a lot of iterations if we skip them at once using their
compound_order(). This is generally unsafe and we can read a bogus
value of order due to a race, but if we are careful, the only danger is
skipping too much.
When tested with stress-highalloc from mmtests on 4GB system with 1GB
hugetlbfs pages, the vmstat compact_free_scanned count decreased by at
least 15%.

The compaction migrate scanner tries to skip THP pages by their order,
to reduce number of iterations for pages it cannot isolate. The check
is only done if PageLRU() is true, which means it applies to THP pages,
but not e.g. hugetlbfs pages or any other non-LRU compound pages, which
we have to iterate by base pages.
This limitation comes from the assumption that it's only safe to read
compound_order() when we have the zone's lru_lock and THP cannot be
split under us. But the only danger (after filtering out order values
that are not below MAX_ORDER, to prevent overflows) is that we skip too
much or too little after reading a bogus compound_order() due to a rare
race. This is the same reasoning as patch 99c0fd5e51c4 ("mm,
compaction: skip buddy pages by their order in the migrate scanner")
introduced for unsafely reading PageBuddy() order.
After this patch, all pages are tested for PageCompound() and we skip
them by compound_order(). The test is done after the test for
balloon_page_movable() as we don't want to assume if balloon pages (or

Handling the position where compaction free scanner should restart
(stored in cc->free_pfn) got more complex with commit e14c720efdd7 ("mm,
compaction: remember position within pageblock in free pages scanner").
Currently the position is updated in each loop iteration of
isolate_freepages(), although it should be enough to update it only when
breaking from the loop. There's also an extra check outside the loop
updates the position in case we have met the migration scanner.
This can be simplified if we move the test for having isolated enough
from the for-loop header next to the test for contention, and
determining the restart position only in these cases. We can reuse the
isolate_start_pfn variable for this instead of setting cc->free_pfn
directly. Outside the loop, we can simply set cc->free_pfn to current
value of isolate_start_pfn without any extra check.
Also add a VM_BUG_ON to catch possible mistake in the future, in case we
later add a new condition that terminates isolate_freepages_block()
prematurely without also considering the condition in
isolate_freepages().

Assorted compaction cleanups and optimizations. The interesting patches
are 4 and 5. In 4, skipping of compound pages in single iteration is
improved for migration scanner, so it works also for !PageLRU compound
pages such as hugetlbfs, slab etc. Patch 5 introduces this kind of
skipping in the free scanner. The trick is that we can read
compound_order() without any protection, if we are careful to filter out
values larger than MAX_ORDER. The only danger is that we skip too much.
The same trick was already used for reading the freepage order in the
migrate scanner.
To demonstrate improvements of Patches 4 and 5 I've run stress-highalloc
from mmtests, set to simulate THP allocations (including __GFP_COMP) on
a 4GB system where 1GB was occupied by hugetlbfs pages. I'll include
just the relevant stats:
Patch 3 Patch 4 Patch 5
Compaction stalls 7523 7529 7515
Compaction success 323 304 322
Compaction failures 7200 7224 7192
Page migrate success 247778 264395 240737
Page migrate failure 15358 33184 21621
Compaction pages isolated 906928 980192 909983
Compaction migrate scanned 2005277 1692805 1498800
Compaction free scanned 13255284 11539986 9011276
Compaction cost 288 305 277
With 5 iterations per patch, the results are still noisy, but we can see
that Patch 4 does reduce migrate_scanned by 15% thanks to skipping the
hugetlbfs pages at once. Interestingly, free_scanned is also reduced
and I have no idea why. Patch 5 further reduces free_scanned as
expected, by 15%. Other stats are unaffected modulo noise.
[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/19/158
This patch (of 5):
Compaction should finish when the migration and free scanner meet, i.e.
they reach the same pageblock. Currently however, the test in
compact_finished() simply just compares the exact pfns, which may yield
a false negative when the free scanner position is in the middle of a
pageblock and the migration scanner reaches the begining of the same
pageblock.
This hasn't been a problem until commit e14c720efdd7 ("mm, compaction:
remember position within pageblock in free pages scanner") allowed the
free scanner position to be in the middle of a pageblock between
invocations. The hot-fix 1d5bfe1ffb5b ("mm, compaction: prevent
infinite loop in compact_zone") prevented the issue by adding a special
check in the migration scanner to satisfy the current detection of
scanners meeting.
However, the proper fix is to make the detection more robust. This
patch introduces the compact_scanners_met() function that returns true
when the free scanner position is in the same or lower pageblock than
the migration scanner. The special case in isolate_migratepages()
introduced by 1d5bfe1ffb5b is removed.

Currently a call to dma_pool_alloc() with a ___GFP_ZERO flag returns a
non-zeroed memory region.
This patchset adds support for the __GFP_ZERO flag to dma_pool_alloc(),
adds 2 wrapper functions for allocing zeroed memory from a pool, and
provides a coccinelle script for finding & replacing instances of
dma_pool_alloc() followed by memset(0) with a single dma_pool_zalloc()
call.
There was some concern that this always calls memset() to zero, instead
of passing __GFP_ZERO into the page allocator.
[https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/15/881]
I ran a test on my system to get an idea of how often dma_pool_alloc()
calls into pool_alloc_page().
After Boot: [ 30.119863] alloc_calls:541, page_allocs:7
After an hour: [ 3600.951031] alloc_calls:9566, page_allocs:12
After copying 1GB file onto a USB drive:
[ 4260.657148] alloc_calls:17225, page_allocs:12
It doesn't look like dma_pool_alloc() calls down to the page allocator
very often (at least on my system).
This patch (of 4):
Currently the __GFP_ZERO flag is ignored by dma_pool_alloc().
Make dma_pool_alloc() zero the memory if this flag is set.

reclaim_clean_pages_from_list() assumes that shrink_page_list() returns
number of pages removed from the candidate list. But shrink_page_list()
puts back mlocked pages without passing it to caller and without
counting as nr_reclaimed. This increases nr_isolated.
To fix this, this patch changes shrink_page_list() to pass unevictable
pages back to caller. Caller will take care those pages.
Minchan said:
It fixes two issues.
1. With unevictable page, cma_alloc will be successful.
Exactly speaking, cma_alloc of current kernel will fail due to
unevictable pages.
2. fix leaking of NR_ISOLATED counter of vmstat
With it, too_many_isolated works. Otherwise, it could make hang until
the process get SIGKILL.

If transparent huge pages are enabled, we can isolate many more pages
than we actually need to scan, because we count both single and huge
pages equally in isolate_lru_pages().
Since commit 5bc7b8aca942d ("mm: thp: add split tail pages to shrink
page list in page reclaim"), we scan all the tail pages immediately
after a huge page split (see shrink_page_list()). As a result, we can
reclaim up to SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX * HPAGE_PMD_NR (512 MB) in one run!
This is easy to catch on memcg reclaim with zswap enabled. The latter
makes swapout instant so that if we happen to scan an unreferenced huge
page we will evict both its head and tail pages immediately, which is
likely to result in excessive reclaim.

Bootmem isn't popular any more, but some architectures still use it, and
freeing to bootmem after calling free_all_bootmem_core() can end up
scribbling over random memory. Instead, make sure the kernel generates
a warning in this case by ensuring the node_bootmem_map field is
non-NULL when are freeing or marking bootmem.
An instance of this bug was just fixed in the tile architecture ("tile:
use free_bootmem_late() for initrd") and catching this case more widely
seems like a good thing.

When parsing SRAT, all memory ranges are added into numa_meminfo. In
numa_init(), before entering numa_cleanup_meminfo(), all possible memory
ranges are in numa_meminfo. And numa_cleanup_meminfo() removes all
ranges over max_pfn or empty.
But, this only works if the nodes are continuous. Let's have a look at
the following example:
We have an SRAT like this:
SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00000000-0x5fffffff]
SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x100000000-0x1ffffffffff]
SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 [mem 0x20000000000-0x3ffffffffff]
SRAT: Node 4 PXM 2 [mem 0x40000000000-0x5ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 5 PXM 3 [mem 0x60000000000-0x7ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 2 PXM 4 [mem 0x80000000000-0x9ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 3 PXM 5 [mem 0xa0000000000-0xbffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 6 PXM 6 [mem 0xc0000000000-0xdffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 7 PXM 7 [mem 0xe0000000000-0xfffffffffff] hotplug
On boot, only node 0,1,2,3 exist.
And the numa_meminfo will look like this:
numa_meminfo.nr_blks = 9
1. on node 0: [0, 60000000]
2. on node 0: [100000000, 20000000000]
3. on node 1: [20000000000, 40000000000]
4. on node 4: [40000000000, 60000000000]
5. on node 5: [60000000000, 80000000000]
6. on node 2: [80000000000, a0000000000]
7. on node 3: [a0000000000, a0800000000]
8. on node 6: [c0000000000, a0800000000]
9. on node 7: [e0000000000, a0800000000]
And numa_cleanup_meminfo() will merge 1 and 2, and remove 8,9 because the
end address is over max_pfn, which is a0800000000. But 4 and 5 are not
removed because their end addresses are less then max_pfn. But in fact,
node 4 and 5 don't exist.
In a word, numa_cleanup_meminfo() is not able to handle holes between nodes.
Since memory ranges in node 4 and 5 are in numa_meminfo, in
numa_register_memblks(), node 4 and 5 will be mistakenly set to online.
If you run lscpu, it will show:
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-14,128-142
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 15-29,143-157
NUMA node2 CPU(s):
NUMA node3 CPU(s):
NUMA node4 CPU(s): 62-76,190-204
NUMA node5 CPU(s): 78-92,206-220
In this patch, we use memblock_overlaps_region() to check if ranges in
numa_meminfo overlap with ranges in memory_block. Since memory_block
contains all available memory at boot time, if they overlap, it means the
ranges exist. If not, then remove them from numa_meminfo.
After this patch, lscpu will show:
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-14,128-142
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 15-29,143-157
NUMA node4 CPU(s): 62-76,190-204
NUMA node5 CPU(s): 78-92,206-220

This is based on the shmem version, but it has diverged quite a bit. We
have no swap to worry about, nor the new file sealing. Add
synchronication via the fault mutex table to coordinate page faults,
fallocate allocation and fallocate hole punch.
What this allows us to do is move physical memory in and out of a
hugetlbfs file without having it mapped. This also gives us the ability
to support MADV_REMOVE since it is currently implemented using
fallocate(). MADV_REMOVE lets madvise() remove pages from the middle of
a hugetlbfs file, which wasn't possible before.
hugetlbfs fallocate only operates on whole huge pages.

In vma_has_reserves(), the current assumption is that reserves are
always present for shared mappings. However, this will not be the case
with fallocate hole punch. When punching a hole, the present page will
be deleted as well as the region/reserve map entry (and hence any
reservation). vma_has_reserves is passed "chg" which indicates whether
or not a region/reserve map is present. Use this to determine if
reserves are actually present or were removed via hole punch.

Modify truncate_hugepages() to take a range of pages (start, end)
instead of simply start. If an end value of LLONG_MAX is passed, the
current "truncate" functionality is maintained. Existing callers are
modified to pass LLONG_MAX as end of range. By keying off end ==
LLONG_MAX, the routine behaves differently for truncate and hole punch.
Page removal is now synchronized with page allocation via faults by
using the fault mutex table. The hole punch case can experience the
rare region_del error and must handle accordingly.
Add the routine hugetlb_fix_reserve_counts to fix up reserve counts in
the case where region_del returns an error.
Since the routine handles more than just the truncate case, it is
renamed to remove_inode_hugepages(). To be consistent, the routine
truncate_huge_page() is renamed remove_huge_page().
Downstream of remove_inode_hugepages(), the routine
hugetlb_unreserve_pages() is also modified to take a range of pages.
hugetlb_unreserve_pages is modified to detect an error from region_del and
pass it back to the caller.

hugetlb page faults are currently synchronized by the table of mutexes
(htlb_fault_mutex_table). fallocate code will need to synchronize with
the page fault code when it allocates or deletes pages. Expose
interfaces so that fallocate operations can be synchronized with page
faults. Minor name changes to be more consistent with other global
hugetlb symbols.

fallocate hole punch will want to remove a specific range of pages. The
existing region_truncate() routine deletes all region/reserve map
entries after a specified offset. region_del() will provide this same
functionality if the end of region is specified as LONG_MAX. Hence,
region_del() can replace region_truncate().
Unlike region_truncate(), region_del() can return an error in the rare
case where it can not allocate memory for a region descriptor. This
ONLY happens in the case where an existing region must be split.
Current callers passing LONG_MAX as end of range will never experience
this error and do not need to deal with error handling. Future callers
of region_del() (such as fallocate hole punch) will need to handle this
error.

hugetlbfs is used today by applications that want a high degree of
control over huge page usage. Often, large hugetlbfs files are used to
map a large number huge pages into the application processes. The
applications know when page ranges within these large files will no
longer be used, and ideally would like to release them back to the
subpool or global pools for other uses. The fallocate() system call
provides an interface for preallocation and hole punching within files.
This patch set adds fallocate functionality to hugetlbfs.
fallocate hole punch will want to remove a specific range of pages.
When pages are removed, their associated entries in the region/reserve
map will also be removed. This will break an assumption in the
region_chg/region_add calling sequence. If a new region descriptor must
be allocated, it is done as part of the region_chg processing. In this
way, region_add can not fail because it does not need to attempt an
allocation.
To prepare for fallocate hole punch, create a "cache" of descriptors
that can be used by region_add if necessary. region_chg will ensure
there are sufficient entries in the cache. It will be necessary to
track the number of in progress add operations to know a sufficient
number of descriptors reside in the cache. A new routine region_abort
is added to adjust this in progress count when add operations are
aborted. vma_abort_reservation is also added for callers creating
reservations with vma_needs_reservation/vma_commit_reservation.

The pair of get/set_freepage_migratetype() functions are used to cache
pageblock migratetype for a page put on a pcplist, so that it does not
have to be retrieved again when the page is put on a free list (e.g.
when pcplists become full). Historically it was also assumed that the
value is accurate for pages on freelists (as the functions' names
unfortunately suggest), but that cannot be guaranteed without affecting
various allocator fast paths. It is in fact not needed and all such
uses have been removed.
The last remaining (but pointless) usage related to pages of freelists
is in move_freepages(), which this patch removes.
To prevent further confusion, rename the functions to
get/set_pcppage_migratetype() and expand their description. Since all
the users are now in mm/page_alloc.c, move the functions there from the
shared header.

The __test_page_isolated_in_pageblock() is used to verify whether all
pages in pageblock were either successfully isolated, or are hwpoisoned.
Two of the possible state of pages, that are tested, are however bogus
and misleading.
Both tests rely on get_freepage_migratetype(page), which however has no
guarantees about pages on freelists. Specifically, it doesn't guarantee
that the migratetype returned by the function actually matches the
migratetype of the freelist that the page is on. Such guarantee is not
its purpose and would have negative impact on allocator performance.
The first test checks whether the freepage_migratetype equals
MIGRATE_ISOLATE, supposedly to catch races between page isolation and
allocator activity. These races should be fixed nowadays with
51bb1a4093 ("mm/page_alloc: add freepage on isolate pageblock to correct
buddy list") and related patches. As explained above, the check
wouldn't be able to catch them reliably anyway. For the same reason
false positives can happen, although they are harmless, as the
move_freepages() call would just move the page to the same freelist it's
already on. So removing the test is not a bug fix, just cleanup. After
this patch, we assume that all PageBuddy pages are on the correct
freelist and that the races were really fixed. A truly reliable
verification in the form of e.g. VM_BUG_ON() would be complicated and
is arguably not needed.
The second test (page_count(page) == 0 && get_freepage_migratetype(page)
== MIGRATE_ISOLATE) is probably supposed (the code comes from a big
memory isolation patch from 2007) to catch pages on MIGRATE_ISOLATE
pcplists. However, pcplists don't contain MIGRATE_ISOLATE freepages
nowadays, those are freed directly to free lists, so the check is
obsolete. Remove it as well.
