After isolation, VM calls migratepage of driver with isolated page.
The function of migratepage is to move content of the old page to new page
and set up fields of struct page newpage. Keep in mind that you should
clear PG_movable of oldpage via __ClearPageMovable under page_lock if you
migrated the oldpage successfully and returns 0.
This "clear PG_movable" is one of the reasons I was confused about what
__ClearPageMovable() really does. There's no actual "PG_movable" page
flag and the function doesn't clear even the actual mapping flag :) Also
same thing in the Documentation/ part.
Something like "... you should indicate to the VM that the oldpage is no
longer movable via __ClearPageMovable() ..."?

The second confusing thing is that the function is named
__ClearPageMovable(), but what it really clears is the mapping pointer,
which is not at all the opposite of what __SetPageMovable() does.
I know it's explained in the documentation, but it also deserves a
comment here so it doesn't confuse everyone who looks at it.
Even better would be a less confusing name for the function, but I can't
offer one right now.

I'd probably use READ_ONCE() here to be safe. Not all callers are under
page lock?
