There is sometimes confusion between the global putback_lru_pages() in migrate.c and the static putback_lru_pages() in vmscan.c: rename the latter putback_inactive_pages(): it helps shrink_inactive_list() rather as move_active_pages_to_lru() helps shrink_active_list(). Remove unused scan_control arg from putback_inactive_pages() and from update_isolated_counts(). Move clear_active_flags() inside update_isolated_counts(). Move NR_ISOLATED accounting up into shrink_inactive_list() itself, so the balance is clearer. Do the spin_lock_irq() before calling putback_inactive_pages() and spin_unlock_irq() after return from it, so that it better matches update_isolated_counts() and move_active_pages_to_lru().
