To remove goto label, we need two __mod_zone_freepage_state() like
as below. On my system, it doesn't generate worse code, but, I am not
sure that this is true if more logic would be added. I think that
goto + label is better.

+	if (unlikely(has_isolate_pageblock(zone))) {
+		migratetype = get_pfnblock_migratetype(page, pfn);
+               if (!is_migrate_isolate(migratetype))
+                       __mod_zone_freepage_state(zone, 1 << order, migratetype);
+       } else {
+               __mod_zone_freepage_state(zone, 1 << order, migratetype);
        }

Anyway, What do you think which one is better, either v2 or v3? Still, v3? :)

Thanks.
