Since commit 5d0a661d808f ("mm/page_alloc: use only one PCP list for
THP-sized allocations") no longer differentiates the migration type
of pages in THP-sized PCP list, it's possible to get a CMA page from
the list, in some cases, it's not acceptable, for example, allocating
a non-CMA page with PF_MEMALLOC_PIN flag returns a CMA page.

The patch forbids allocating non-CMA THP-sized page from THP-sized
PCP list to avoid the issue above.

Seems you will also miss the non-CMA THP from the PCP, so I wonder if we can add a migratetype comparison in __rmqueue_pcplist(), and if it's not suitable, then fallback to buddy?

Yes, we may miss some non-CMA THPs in the PCP. But, if add a migratetype comparison in __rmqueue_pcplist(), we may need to compare many times because of pcp batch.
