From: Michal Nazarewicz <mina86@xxxxxxxxxx> If page is on PCP list while pageblock it belongs to gets isolated, the page's private still holds the old migrate type. This means that free_pcppages_bulk() will put the page on a freelist of the old migrate type instead of MIGRATE_ISOLATE. This commit changes that by explicitly checking whether page's pageblock's migrate type is MIGRATE_ISOLATE and if it is, overwrites page's private data.
