No, for non-lumpy isolation we don't need this check at all,

I'll send separate patch for this (on top v5 patchset), after meditation =)
Heh, looks like we don't need these checks at all:
without RECLAIM_MODE_LUMPYRECLAIM we isolate only pages from right lru,
with RECLAIM_MODE_LUMPYRECLAIM we isolate pages from all evictable lru.
Thus we should check only PageUnevictable() on lumpy reclaim.
Yes, those were great simplfying insights: I'm puzzling over why you
didn't follow through on them in your otherwise nice 4.5/7, which
still involves lru bits in the isolate mode?
Actually filter is required for single case: lumpy isolation for shrink_active_list().
Maybe I'm wrong, or this is bug, but I don't see any reasons why this can not happen:
sc->reclaim_mode manipulations are very tricky.
