Recently, I hit the following issue when running in the upstream.

madvise_pageout access the specified range of the vma and isolate
them, then run shrink_page_list to reclaim its memory. But It also
isolate the unevictable page to reclaim. Hence, we can catch the
cases in shrink_page_list.
The root cause is that we scan the page tables instead of specific
LRU list. and so we need to filter out the unevictable lru pages
from our end.

v1 -> v2:
Remove BUG_ON is not an good solutions. Becuase it indeed can
see !page_evictable() in shrink_page_list due to some race.
