Non-LRU movable folio isolation will fail if it can't grab a reference

bit,
this is also prepare to convert isolate_movable_page() to take a folio.
Since the reference count of the non-LRU movable folio is increased,
a folio_put() is needed whether the folio is isolated or not.
There's a reason I stopped where I did when converting this function
to use folios. Usually I would explain, but I think it would do you
good to think about why for a bit.
Hi Matthew, could you explain it, many thanks.
Hm, I don't find the reason,
The major change is that we move folio_get_nontail_page ahead, so we
may try add a reference for each page, it always fails to isolate
with/without this changes, so I suppose that there is no issue here,
for other cases, PageBuddy/PageHuge is also handled before !PageLRU,
although the check is lockless, we will re-check under lock. so is
some page's reference can't try to grab or there are some special
handling for movable page.
The minimized changes could be something like below, just add a new
folio_get_nontail_page() before isolate_movable_page(), other patches
don't need to be changed.

but I am not clear about the reason why this has issue, could you share
more tips, thank.
Andrew, please drop these patches.
