From: Chengming Zhou <zhouchengming@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
If tree_page has been migrated to another NUMA node and across_nodes
disabled, flush it out immediately and it will be put in the right
unstable tree when next time.
The good point is that we can retry to insert our rmap_item successfully
to increase the merge possibility, and we don't need to bother to
memcmp_pages() in this case.
