I adjusted comment and removed the isolated lru changes which seem
unnecessary.
I would have preferred > 0, but I thought >= 1 may make it more
explicit it's really not meant to hit on the first page.

Subject: thp: improve order in lru list for split huge page
Put the tail subpages of an isolated hugepage under splitting in the
lru reclaim head as they supposedly should be isolated too next.
Queues the subpages in physical order in the lru for non isolated
hugepages under splitting. That might provide some theoretical cache
benefit to the buddy allocator later.
